Description
Nexito 5 mg is a prescription medication manufactured by Sun Pharmaceutical (Bangladesh) Ltd., containing the active ingredient Escitalopram Oxalate. Escitalopram is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter, in the brain, which helps in maintaining mental balance. This medication is primarily used to treat various mental health conditions, including major depressive episodes, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder with or without agoraphobia, social anxiety disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Nexito 5 mg is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and the dosage may be adjusted based on individual patient response and medical advice. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage and not discontinue the medication abruptly without consulting a healthcare provider, as this may lead to withdrawal symptoms. Common side effects may include nausea, fatigue, confusion, dizziness, and changes in sexual drive or ability. Patients should inform their doctor if they experience any unusual symptoms during treatment. Nexito 5 mg is not recommended for children under 12 years of age and should be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding only if the potential benefits justify the potential risks to the fetus or infant.
