Placida Tablet 10's

Placida Tablet is primarily used to treat psychogenic depression, depressive neurosis, psychosomatic affections accompanied by anxiety and apathy, asthenia, menopausal depression, and depression in alcoholics and drug addicts. Depression is a mood disorder that affects a person's daily life and is described as feelings of sadness, loss, or anger. These symptoms may interfere with daily activities and affect the quality of life.

Placida Tablet contains Flupentixol and Melitracen. Flupentixol is an antipsychotic medication that works by inhibiting dopamine, a chemical messenger in the brain that influences thoughts and mood. Melitracen is a tricyclic antidepressant that raises the levels of chemical messengers in the brain that aid in mood regulation and the treatment of depression. Thus, Placida Tablet effectively treats various forms of depression and anxiety.

Depression: It is a mood condition defined by a continuous feeling of unhappiness, dissatisfaction, hopelessness, anger or loss that interferes with a person's daily activities. Depression can also have an impact on some chronic health issues and relationships. Neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline levels drop in this illness, resulting in depressive symptoms. The specific aetiology of depression is unknown; however, it may be linked to mental health issues, family history, drug use, trauma, and physiological diseases. Depression can be treated with medications and psychotherapy.

Anxiety: Anxiety is a state of uneasiness that can range from mild to severe. Anxiety is a normal emotion. However, some people struggle to keep their fears in control. Their worry is more persistent and frequently interferes with their daily life. Anxiety is the primary symptom of several disorders, including panic disorder, phobias (such as agoraphobia or claustrophobia), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and social anxiety disorder (social phobia).

Asthenia: It is a condition characterised by a lack of energy, strength, and physical or mental weakness which can affect certain body parts or the entire body.
