Description
Depralex 10Mg 28Tab contains the active ingredient escitalopram oxalate. Each tablet contains 10 milligrams of escitalopram. Escitalopram is classified as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that helps regulate mood. Depralex 10Mg tablets are primarily prescribed for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). It may also be used to treat other anxiety disorders such as panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). By increasing serotonin levels, escitalopram can help to improve mood, reduce feelings of anxiety and worry, and alleviate other symptoms associated with these conditions. The 28-tablet pack provides a four-week supply at the usual starting dosage, although the specific dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by your doctor based on your individual needs and response to the medication.

- In some cases, antidepressants may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior, especially in children, adolescents, and young adults during the initial stages of treatment and when dosage changes are made. It is important to monitor for any changes in mood, behavior, or thoughts of self-harm and report them to your doctor immediately.
- Inform your doctor about all other medications you are currently taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, and herbal supplements, as interactions can occur, particularly with other SSRIs, MAO inhibitors, and certain medications that affect serotonin levels.
- Avoid alcohol while taking Depralex, as it can worsen side effects.
- Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as the use of escitalopram during these times may have potential risks.
