Mode of Action of Taloprex Ls 5mg Tablet
How Does It Work?
Taloprex Ls tablet has Clonazepam and Escitalopram as its active ingredients.
Clonazepam belongs to the category of benzodiazepine medicines. It works by improving the action of a chemical messenger in the brain known as GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). This substance lowers the irregular or excessive activity of nerve cells in the brain and is responsible for the sedation effects of the medicine. Taloprex Ls tablets do not change GABA levels in the brain.
Escitalopram is an antidepressant medication. It increases serotonin levels in the brain by stopping its reuptake by nerve cells. Serotonin is a natural chemical messenger responsible for stabilising mood, causing happy thoughts, etc. It can also aid in other functions like sleeping, eating, and digestion....
