About Mega-OD Capsule

Mega-OD Capsule is used to treat neuropathic pain, diabetic neuropathy, alcoholic neuropathy, trigeminal neuralgia, drug-induced neuropathy, and nutritional deficiencies. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food.
 
Mega-OD Capsule consists of four supplements: Mecobalamin, Alpha lipoic acid, Folic acid, and Pyridoxine. Mecobalamin and pyridoxine help in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents oxidative stress, thereby helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Mega-OD Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.
 
Take Mega-OD Capsule as advised by the doctor. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhoea, sleepiness, nausea, and vomiting. 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.
 
Consult your doctor before taking Mega-OD Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Mega-OD Capsule may cause sleepiness, so drive only if you are alert. Limited information is available regarding the usage of Mega-OD Capsule in children, so please consult a doctor. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Mega-OD Capsule as it could lead to increased sleepiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.
