Fluwel Tablet Description

Fluwel Tablet is an antidepressant medication prescribed by a doctor. This combo of medicine soothes the brain by reducing nerve cell activity that is aberrant or excessive. It also improves mood by

increasing the levels of certain chemical messengers in the brain. It is possible to take Fluwel Tablet with or without food. However, it's recommended that you take it at the same time each day to provide a regular dose of medicine in your body. Because this medicine has the potential to create a habit, only take it in the dose and for the length of time prescribed by your doctor. If you forget to take the dose, take it as soon as possible. Complete the course of treatment even if you are feeling better. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, disorientation, and a lack of sexual drive are frequent side effects of this medication. It can also make you feel dizzy and sleepy. Depending on the individual, it might promote weight gain or loss. If you notice any unexpected changes in your mood, tell your doctor right away because they could lead to suicidal thoughts. When taking medicine, be cautious if you have liver disease. Any other medications you are taking should also be disclosed to your doctor, as some may affect the effectiveness or modify the way this medicine works. Inform your doctor if you're pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
