PEXEP 40MG 10 Tablets

PEXEP

PEXEP is used to treat major depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, premenstrual dysphoria disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. Depression is a mood disorder characterized by sadness, dissatisfaction, anger, hopelessness, or loss that interferes with daily activities.

PEXEP is formulated with the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor paroxetine. It functions by preventing the reuptake of serotonin in the brain, which is a mood-boosting chemical messenger between brain cells. By increasing serotonin concentrations in the neuronal synapse, this helps regulate mood and cure depression and anxiety disorders.

Take PEXEP precisely as prescribed. Depending on your medical condition and response to treatment, you should continue to take PEXEP for as long as your doctor directs. Certain common side effects may occur, including insomnia (difficulty sleeping), dizziness, headache, diarrhea, nausea, exhaustion, dry mouth, appetite loss, pin and sexual dysfunction. If you are experiencing these side effects frequently, you should consult a physician.

Avoid taking PEXEP if you are pregnant, as it may harm the fetus. If you are breastfeeding, consult your physician prior to taking PEXEP. While taking PEXEP, you may experience dizziness, disorientation, fatigue, and impaired vision; therefore, you should not drive or operate heavy machinery. PEXEP is not recommended for children younger than 18 years old because its safety and efficacy have not yet been established. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking PEXEP, as it may exacerbate side effects and symptoms. To rule out any adverse effects, keep your doctor informed of your current health status and medications.

PEXEP’s Applications

Major depressive disorders include OCD, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder.

Medicinal Advantages

PEXEP is an antidepressant medication known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. PEXEP is effective for treating major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. PEXEP prevents nerves from reabsorbing serotonin, a mood-enhancing chemical messenger in the brain that communicates between brain cells. By increasing serotonin concentrations in the neuronal synapse, this helps regulate mood and cure depression and anxiety disorders. PEXEP aids in depression recovery and has fewer adverse effects than earlier antidepressants.
