Restyl 0.5 MG Description
Restyl 0.5 mg tablets are chiefly used for moderate to severe anxiety along with panic disorders due to depression. It contains alprazolam 0.5 mg as the chief ingredient in its composition. Alprazola
m belongs to a specific class of medicines called benzodiazepines. The most common problem with these medicines is that they are habit-forming. A medical prescription is a must to use these types of medicines as they can be abused by people. They affect the CNS(the central nervous system) of our body which mainly includes the brain. They help in calming the brain of anxiety and help in making the quality of life better. These medications must be taken under the guidance of a well-qualified doctor. If overused, they can prove to be fatal for the life of a person. A sudden stop in the usage of these medicines is also not recommended, and consultation by a doctor is a must.
