Tynept 12.5 MG Description
Tynept 12.5mg Tablet is an antidepressant medicine that is used to manage depression. Depression (major depressive disorder) is a widespread and significant medical condition that causes a variety of
mental and physical problems and reduces your capacity to operate at work and home. Tynept Tablet contains tianeptine as an active ingredient. Tianeptine is a substance that has an effect on the chemical balance in the brain. When used in small doses, it improves and brightens the mood and is thought to be beneficial in the treatment of depression in those who have not responded to other treatments. Tynept Tablet acts like an opioid when consumed in higher doses, which can lead to addiction and other significant side effects. It can also make you feel depressed or worsen your condition. The side effects of Tynept Tablet are less severe than those of other antidepressants. This prescription typically takes a few weeks to work, so even if it doesn't seem to be working, you should keep taking it.
