About Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml

Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is an anticholinergic agent/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor combination that is primarily used at the end of an operation to reverse the effects of anaesthetics and muscle relaxants.

Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is made of Glycopyrrolate and Neostigmine. Neostigmine raises acetylcholine levels by inhibiting an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, which is involved in nerve impulse transmission and muscle action. On the other hand, Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic that inhibits the negative effects of Neostigmine, such as slowed heart rate and excessive saliva production.

Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is prescription-only medication available in the form of injection. It is administered by a qualified healthcare professional. The common side-effects of Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml are pain, itching, swelling or redness around the site of injection, constipation, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, visual disturbance, dizziness, diarrhoea, too much saliva, dryness of skin, increased pressure on the eye, stomach cramps, the uncontrolled need of passing urine.
