About Amnurite Beta 10/40mg Er Tablet

Amnurite Beta 10/40mg Er Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called tricyclic anti-depressants used to prevent migraine attacks with co-morbid conditions like insomnia, neuralgia pain, hypertension, and anxiety. A migraine is usually a moderate or severe headache felt as a throbbing pain on one side of the head.

Amnurite Beta 10/40mg Er Tablet is a combination of two medicines, namely, amitriptyline and propranolol.

Amitriptyline can also change how your nerves receive pain signals so the pain goes away. Propranolol is a beta-blocker. It also widens the blood vessels in the body for better blood flow. Thereby, it helps to relieve your symptoms of pain or migraine.
