Cipralex 20Mg 28Tab

Description

Cipralex 20Mg 28Tab contains escitalopram oxalate, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant, at a higher dosage of 20mg per tablet. Escitalopram works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that helps regulate mood. Cipralex 20Mg is typically prescribed for adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) who require a higher dose for effective symptom management. The 28-tablet pack provides a four-week supply at this dosage. It is crucial to take Cipralex exactly as prescribed by your doctor, and it may take several weeks to experience the full benefits. Do not stop taking this medication suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms. Your doctor will determine if this higher strength is appropriate for your condition.
