Overview Lano 10mg Tablet

Lanoxin 10mg tablets treat schizophrenia (a mental illness causing hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking/behavior) and manic episodes. Administer with or without food, consistently at the same time daily for steady blood levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration; take missed doses promptly. Never discontinue abruptly without consulting your physician, as symptom exacerbation may occur. Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, muscle stiffness, and agitation. Initial postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drops upon position changes) may necessitate slow rising from sitting or lying. Dizziness and drowsiness are also possible; avoid driving or mentally demanding tasks until effects are known. Weight gain, hyperglycemia, and elevated cholesterol are potential risks, mitigated by healthy eating and regular exercise. Serious, though uncommon, adverse events include severe hyperglycemia and convulsions.
