Symbal 10mg Tablets Description

Symbal 10mg Tab belongs to a class of antidepressants called SNRI’s (Serotonin and Noradrenaline Reuptake Inhibitors). Symbal Tab contains Duloxetine as its chief ingredient. It is used to treat depr

ession and other mood disorders such as anxiety. It also treats diabetic neuropathic pain (nerve damage due to diabetes), fibromyalgia (widespread pain in the body), and stress urinary incontinence. Symbal 10mg Tab primarily interferes with the Central Nervous System (CNS). It causes specific chemical changes to increase the chief chemicals (called active neurotransmitters) that regulate the brain’s activity, which uplifts mood and prevents a person from getting depressed. Symbal 10mg Tab should be taken orally with a glass of water. This medication must not be consumed without a doctor’s prescription. The dosage of the Symbal tab should be under the prescription. Talk to your doctor before taking or stopping the medicine or increasing its dosage.
