Libotryp Xl 25mg Tablet Description

Libotryp is a combination medication. This means that Libotryp is made of two medicines and is used to treat conditions such as depression coupled with anxiety. This medication helps in regulating mo

od and also decreases anxiety. Libotryp works by influencing the levels of particular chemicals in the brain that regulate mood. It is an effective antidepressant that is given through prescription. Anxiety is a natural reaction towards stress and can be interpreted as a sensation of uneasiness or stress about a problem. In the case of anxiety disorder, individuals may feel duress and develop unproportional forms of unease or worry towards situations. Libotryp tablets should be taken every day at the same time to ensure that a particular level of medication is consistently maintained throughout the day. You should take medicine as and when prescribed by your doctor. If you feel that a specific dosage isn’t working for you, consult your doctor about the same. Hanging your dosage by yourself is not advised as that can lead to adverse effects. Do not stop taking the medicine if you feel better without consulting your health provider. The commonly observed side effects seen with the use of Libotryp include constipation, confusion, drowsiness, weight gain, lowering of blood pressure while standing, weight gain etc. Most side effects tend to be mild in nature. If you experience worsening symptoms, consult your doctor.
