About Multizine 25 mg Capsule

Multizine 25 mg Capsule belongs to a group of medications called ‘antipsychotics.’ It is used to treat schizophrenia or psychosis and bipolar disorder (manic depression). Schizophrenia is characterized by hallucinations symptoms (seeing or hearing things that are not real) and delusions (wrong beliefs). Manic episodes of excitement or depression characterize bipolar disorder. Multizine 25 mg Capsule prevents the occurrence of these symptoms. 

Multizine 25 mg Capsule contains ‘Thioridazine,’ which is an antipsychotic drug. It acts by blocking dopamine, a neurotransmitter in the brain responsible for developing schizophrenia and bipolar disorder symptoms. Multizine 25 mg Capsule  rebalances dopamine to improve thinking, mood and behaviour. It also blocks the other natural substance receptors in the brain, such as histamine and muscarinic, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.

Take Multizine 25 mg Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Multizine 25 mg Capsule as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as sleepiness, orthostatic hypotension (sudden lowering of blood pressure on standing), dry mouth, abnormality of voluntary movements, weight gain, urinary retention, constipation, muscle stiffness, and tremor. Most of these side effects of Multizine 25 mg Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Do not take Multizine 25 mg Capsule if you are allergic to Thioridazine or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking Multizine 25 mg Capsule , talk to your doctor if you or your family have a history of blood clots, stroke or heart diseases and if you are above 65 years and have a history of dementia (memory loss).
