Thoraplan 25mg Tablet is used to treat schizophrenia or psychosis and bipolar disorder (manic depression). Schizophrenia is characterized by hallucinations symptoms (seeing or hearing things that are not real) and delusions (wrong beliefs). Manic episodes of excitement or depression characterize bipolar disorder. Thoraplan 25mg Tablet prevents the occurrence of these symptoms.
Thoraplan 25mg Tablet contains ‘Thioridazine,’ which is an antipsychotic drug. It acts by blocking dopamine, a neurotransmitter in the brain responsible for developing schizophrenia and bipolar disorder symptoms. Thoraplan 25mg Tablet rebalances dopamine to improve thinking, mood and behaviour. It also blocks the other natural substance receptors in the brain, such as histamine and muscarinic, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.
Take Thoraplan 25mg Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Thoraplan 25mg Tablet as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as sleepiness, orthostatic hypotension (sudden lowering of blood pressure on standing), dry mouth, abnormality of voluntary movements, weight gain, urinary retention, constipation, muscle stiffness, and tremor. Most of these side effects of Thoraplan 25mg Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Thoraplan 25mg Tablet works by helping to restore the balance of certain natural substances in the brain.
