Product Introduction:
Amide 400mg Tablet is a medication containing the active ingredient Amisulpride, which belongs to a class of drugs known as atypical antipsychotics. It is primarily used to treat psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. Amide 400mg Tablet works by restoring the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, specifically dopamine and serotonin, which are believed to be imbalanced in individuals with schizophrenia.
Amide 400mg Tablet may be taken with or without food, preferably before bedtime. However, it is advised to take it at the same time each day as this helps to maintain a consistent level of medicine in the body. Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor and if you have missed a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. It is important that this medication is not stopped suddenly without talking to your doctor as it may worsen your symptoms.
Some common side effects of this medicine include nausea, vomiting, dryness in the mouth, blurred vision, insomnia, and erectile dysfunction. Initially, this medicine may cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when you change positions, so it is better to rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down. It also causes dizziness and sleepiness, so do not drive or do anything that requires mental focus until you know how this medicine affects you. This medicine can lead to weight gain and may increase your blood sugar and cholesterol levels. However, modifying your lifestyle by having a healthy diet and exercising regularly can reduce this side effect.
