Ezeepam Plus 5mg Tablet
Ezeepam Plus 5mg Tablet Description
Ezeepam Plus 5 mg Tablet is composed of Clonazepam 0.5mg + Escitalopram 5mg. Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine. It is a psychoactive medicine that improves the condition by increasing the action of
GABA, a chemical messenger that reduces the abnormal activity of the brain nerve cells. Escitalopram is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. It improves the condition by raising serotonin levels in the brain, a chemical messenger. This alleviates symptoms of illnesses and improves mental and physical symptoms in those who are depressed. Uses of Ezeepam Plus 5 mg Tablet include the treatment of patients suffering from both depression and anxiety disorders. Major depressive disorder is a widespread and significant medical condition that has a negative impact on how you feel, think, and behave. It is also, thankfully, treatable. Depression produces unhappiness and a loss of interest in previously appreciated activities. It can cause a slew of mental and physical issues, as well as a reduction in your capacity to operate at work and home. This medicine is not recommended for patients below 18 years of age.
