Medical Description
Nextril Tablet is an 'anti-depressant medicine' primarily used to treat depression and depression-related anxiety. Depression is a mood illness that mainly impacts one's daily life. It includes emotional pain, rage, or loss, all of which harm one's quality of life. Anxiety disorder is a mental illness defined by excessive dread or worry that interferes with daily activities.
Nextril Tablet contains Tofisopam, a benzodiazepine used to treat depression. It works by boosting the action of GABA (gamma-amino-butyric acid), a chemical messenger in the brain that regulates the excessive and abnormal activity of nerve cells in the brain. As a result, stress is reduced, a sense of well-being is created, anxiety is relieved, sleep is improved, and energy levels are increased, allowing you to do daily activities.
Follow your doctor's instructions for taking Nextril Tablet. Depending on your medical condition, you should take Nextril Tablet as long as your doctor has recommended it. Loss of appetite, dry mouth, nausea, insomnia (difficulty sleeping), and headache are possible side effects. Most of these Nextril Tablet adverse effects do not require medical treatment and will go away over time. Please visit your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen....
