About Mego-XL Capsule 15's

Mego-XL Capsule 15's belongs to the class of 'Vitamins', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies and neuropathic pain. Mego-XL Capsule 15's may be used in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy, drug-induced neuropathy, alcoholic neuropathy, and trigeminal neuralgia.

Alpha-lipoic acid helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Mego-XL Capsule 15's helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Take Mego-XL Capsule 15's as prescribed by the doctor. Your doctor will decide the dosage and duration based on your medical condition. Sometimes, Mego-XL Capsule 15's may cause common side effects like nausea, stomach upset, and vomiting.
