About Amipam-M5 Tablet 10's

Amipam-M5 Tablet 10's is used to manage neuropathic pain due to damaged nerves. Neuropathic pain is pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, like a prickling, stabbing, tingling, or burning sensation.

Amipam-M5 Tablet 10's is a combination of two drugs: Amitriptyline and Methylcobalamin. Amitriptyline belongs to a class of medications known as tricyclic antidepressants, and it works by boosting serotonin levels in the brain. This can make you feel better. This can also alter how your nerves receive pain signals, causing pain to subside. Methylcobalamin is a vitamin B derivative that promotes the synthesis of myelin, which protects nerve fibres and rejuvenates injured nerve cells. They work together to alleviate neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves).

Take Amipam-M5 Tablet 10's as prescribed by your doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take Amipam-M5 Tablet 10's for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you.
