About Rexipra 5mg
Rexipra 5mg is a medication primarily used to treat depression and various anxiety disorders. It contains the active ingredient Escitalopram, which belongs to a class of antidepressants called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs).
Uses
It helps improve mood, reduce feelings of sadness and hopelessness, and alleviate anxiety associated with depression. Helps in lowering excessive worry. Reduces the frequency and severity of panic attacks and helps individuals feel calmer and better able to cope.
How it works
Rexipra 5mg works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a natural chemical messenger that plays a crucial role in regulating mood, emotions, and overall well-being.
By blocking the reabsorption (reuptake) of serotonin, Rexipra allows serotonin to remain active in the brain for a longer period, which helps to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.
How to Take
Take the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush, or break it, as this can affect how the medication is absorbed. Rexipra 5mg can be taken with or without food. It’s generally recommended to take Rexipra 5 mg at the same time each day.
