Description
Desilam Plus Tab is a prescription anxiety medication. It is a combination medicine that relaxes the brain by reducing aberrant and excessive nerve cell activity. It also raises the level of a chemic
al messenger in the brain, which improves mood. Delay in ejaculation, decreased sexual desire, vomiting, memory impairment, sadness, and confusion are all common side effects of this medication. Depending on the individual, it might promote weight gain or loss. Eating a well-balanced diet and exercising regularly can help you prevent gaining weight. Weight loss, on the other hand, can be avoided by increasing food portions in your diet. It's necessary to tell your doctor if you experience any strange mood swings, as these can lead to suicidal thoughts.
