About Esredep Plus Tablet

CLONAZEPAM+ESCITALOPRAM OXALATE belongs to a group of medications called ‘antianxiety medications’ used in the treatment of anxiety disorders. Anxiety is a mental health disorder characterized by feelings of anxiety, worry, or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one’s daily activities. Symptoms of anxiety include rapid breathing, increased heart rate, restlessness, trouble concentrating, and difficulty falling asleep.

CLONAZEPAM+ESCITALOPRAM OXALATE is a combination of two drugs: clonazepam and escitalopram oxalate. Clonazepam produces a calming effect by suppressing the abnormal activity of nerve cells. Escitalopram oxalate increases the serotonin hormone levels that improve mood, behavior, and cognition in patients with anxiety.

Common side-effects of CLONAZEPAM+ESCITALOPRAM OXALATE are nausea, headache, dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, fatigue, sleeping problems, breathlessness, and poor coordination of movements, stomach upset, decreased libido (low sexual desire), and memory problems. Consult your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Do not take CLONAZEPAM+ESCITALOPRAM OXALATE if you are allergic to any of its components. Inform your doctor if you have seizures, liver problems, sleep disorders, lung problems, and alcohol or drug abuse. Do not consume alcohol as it can increase the risk of side effects. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. CLONAZEPAM+ESCITALOPRAM OXALATE may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so avoid driving or operating machinery unless you are alert.
