Description:
Fludac Capsule is an antidepressant classified under selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and is commonly prescribed to treat depression and other mental health conditions such as panic disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. It works by improving mood and relieving anxiety and tension, helping many individuals recover from depressive symptoms.
Additionally, it is used in the treatment of bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder, by reducing episodes of binge-eating and purging. The appropriate dosage and frequency will be determined by your doctor based on your specific condition. Often, treatment begins with a lower dose that is gradually increased. It is important not to alter the dosage or discontinue the medication without medical advice, as doing so may worsen your condition or lead to withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, restlessness, palpitations, dizziness, and sleep disturbances. For best results, take Fludac regularly at the same time each day. It may take a few weeks before noticeable improvement occurs, so it’s important to inform your doctor if there is no change after four weeks.
Common side effects may include nausea, indigestion, dry mouth, fatigue, loss of appetite, increased sweating, sinusitis, insomnia, yawning, and vivid dreams. Some individuals may also experience sexual side effects like reduced libido, delayed ejaculation, or erectile dysfunction. Notify your doctor immediately if you experience a sudden worsening of mood or thoughts of self-harm. Before starting Fludac, inform your doctor if you have any medical conditions such as epilepsy, diabetes, liver or kidney problems, heart issues, or glaucoma, as these may influence your treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before using this medication. Additionally, inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, particularly other antidepressants or MAO inhibitors, to ensure the safe use of Fludac.
