Overview Axepine 15mg Tablet

Lozapine 15mg tablets are prescribed for managing psychotic disorders. This medication effectively treats schizophrenia (characterized by distorted perceptions, including hallucinations and delusions, impacting thought processes and behavior) and manic episodes. It's also indicated for depression and bipolar affective disorders. Lozapine 15mg tablets are administered orally, with or without food, ideally at the same time each day to ensure consistent blood levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration; if a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recall. Complete the entire course of treatment, even if symptoms improve. Discontinuation should only occur under medical supervision, as abrupt cessation can exacerbate symptoms. Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, and dry mouth. Initially, postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drops upon standing) can occur; rise slowly from a seated or lying position. Drowsiness and dizziness are also possible; avoid driving or activities requiring concentration until the effects are known. Increased blood sugar and cholesterol levels are potential side effects, mitigable through lifestyle adjustments such as diet and exercise. Report any unusual mood or behavioral changes, worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts to your doctor immediately.
