Esopam Plus Strip Of 10 Tablets Description

Esopam Plus Tablet is a prescription medication commonly used for treatment of depression & anxiety disorders. Anxiety and other mood disorders affect how you feel, and it is always accompanied by ma

jor depressive disorder. Esopam Tablet helps stabilise the mood by lowering the excess activity of nerves in the brain. It can also cause a relaxing mood and sedation effect. Esopam Tablet is a combination medicine which contains clonazepam (0.5 mg) and escitalopram (10 mg) as their main ingredient. Escitalopram works on the brain to prevent the re-uptake of serotonin, thereby increasing the level of serotonin in the nerve cells. Serotonin is responsible for controlling various behavioural processes, including anger, appetite, mood, fear, memory, and stress response, etc. Clonazepam causes calming effects on the brain by increasing an inhibitory neurotransmitter called GABA and increasing the synthesis of serotonin. It is suggested to take Esopam Tablet after the prescription of the doctor. Tell your doctor about the history of past illness and the medications you are taking. The dose of Esopam Tablet should be carefully monitored, especially in older patients and patients with liver and kidney disorders. The dose should also be monitored because it can cause dependency and potential habit-forming.
