About Flusmile-10 mg Capsule
Flusmile-10 mg Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called antidepressants used to treat a major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), bulimia nervosa (eating disorder), and panic disorder. Depression is a mood disorder characterised by the feeling of sadness, unhappiness, anger, hopelessness or loss that interferes with a person’s daily activities.
Flusmile-10 mg Capsule contains ‘Fluoxetine’ which is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. It works by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin by nerves, a mood-enhancing chemical messenger in the brain which communicates between brain cells. This helps in an increase in serotonin concentrations in the nerve synapse, thereby helps in regulating mood and treats depression.
Take Flusmile-10 mg Capsule as prescribed. You are advised to take Flusmile-10 mg Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition and response to the treatment. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as insomnia (difficulty sleeping), headache, diarrhoea, nausea, fatigue, dry mouth, loss of appetite, and indigestion. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
Please do not stop taking Flusmile-10 mg Capsule on your own as it could lead to withdrawal symptoms. Do not take Flusmile-10 mg Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed. Do not drive or operate machinery as Flusmile-10 mg Capsule may cause dizziness and might impair your reactions. Flusmile-10 mg Capsule should not be given to children below 8years as the safety and effectiveness have not been established.
