Palido Od tablet is a prescription medication. It is used to manage schizophrenia. It is a psychotic disorder that changes one’s way of thinking, emotionally reacting and behaving in typical situatio

ns. It has positive symptoms such as confusion and hallucination and negative symptoms like lack of facial expression and decreased speaking. Helping with all of them, predominantly negative symptoms, is the primary use of the Palido Od tablet. Paliperidone is the main active ingredient of the Palido Od tablet.
