Overview Arpizol 5 Tablet

Apizar 5mg tablets are prescribed for managing psychotic disorders. This medication is effective in treating schizophrenia (characterized by distorted perceptions, disordered thinking, and abnormal behavior) and manic episodes. It's also used to address depressive symptoms and bipolar disorder. Apizar 5mg tablets are administered orally, with or without food, ideally at the same time each day for consistent blood levels. Follow your physician's instructions regarding dosage and treatment duration. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recollection. Complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve. Never discontinue this medication abruptly without consulting your doctor, as this may exacerbate your condition. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, and dry mouth. Initially, postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drop upon standing) may occur; rise slowly from a sitting or lying position. Drowsiness and dizziness are also possible; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until the effects are known. Increased blood sugar and cholesterol levels are potential side effects; mitigating this risk involves a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Report any unusual mood shifts, worsening depression, or suicidal ideation to your doctor immediately.
