Description
Hitap Er 100 mg tablet is a potent analgesic (painkiller) recommended in adults suffering from moderate to severe acute pain that can be adequately treated only with an opioid painkiller. The ac
tive ingredient in Hitap Er 100 mg tablet is tapentadol, an opioid analgesic. The mode of action of Hitap Er 100 mg tablet is by acting on the natural chemical substances released in the brain for pain perception. Taking Hitap Er 100 mg tablets temporarily changes the way the brain and the nervous system react to pain. This medication may lead to physical and psychological dependence and should not be taken longer than prescribed by the doctor. Ideally, the lowest pain-relieving dose should be taken. If there is any prior history of addiction issues, it should be prescribed for a short time and under strict medical observation. The dosing regimen is based on the severity of pain, prior treatment history of the patient, and the medical supervision that can be provided to the affected person. In case of treatment interruption or early treatment discontinuation, the pain could likely return. A doctor must be consulted before stopping treatment. No after-effects have been observed usually on stopping the medication; however, on rare occasions, it has been seen that people may feel unwell after abruptly stopping the medication after prolonged use. To avoid such issues, consult a doctor before stopping the treatment. Side effects of Hitap Er 100 mg tablets include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, and decreased appetite.
