Nexito Forte Tablet
Nexito Forte Tablet Description
Nexito Forte is a prescription medication commonly used for various anxiety and mood disorders. It is a combination of two medicines: clonazepam (0.5 mg) and escitalopram (10 mg). Clonazepam is a tra
nquilliser, and it belongs to a class of benzodiazepines. Escitalopram is an antidepressant, and it belongs to the SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) class of medicines. Anxiety and other mood disorders affect how you feel, and it is always accompanied by major depressive disorder. The reasons behind it are mostly unknown. It can be caused by sudden triggers like stress, trauma, etc. Nexito Forte helps stabilise the mood by lowering the excess activity of nerves in the brain. It can also cause a relaxing mood and sedation effect. The dose of Nexito Forte should be carefully monitored in everyone, especially in older people and patients with liver and kidney disorders. The dose should also be monitored because it can cause dependency and potential habit-forming. You should tell your doctor all the medication you are taking, as this medicine can interact with them and have undesirable side effects.
