Veniz Xr Er 150 MG Description

Veniz Xr 150mg Cap contains venlafaxine hydrochloride as its main ingredient. It belongs to the group of medicines known as antidepressants. It is primarily used for the treatment of psychiatric diso

rders like general and social anxiety issues, depression, and panic disorders. It may sometimes also be used along with other medicines to treat symptoms of menopause. Anxiety-related disorders exhibit symptoms like constant thoughts and feelings of worry, fear, and indecisiveness. A person may feel very anxious or find it difficult to perform in front of others. Venlafaxine hydrochloride acts by increasing levels of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain. It helps to generate feelings of calmness, relaxation and happiness, thus elevating the mood, behaviour, and social responses of the patient in everyday life. Veniz Xr 150mg Cap comes as oral capsules to be taken with water with/without food. Veniz Xr 150mg Cap may be prescribed to patients of all age groups, but it carries the risk of increasing depressive thoughts. Therefore, patients must be monitored on a regular basis.
