Overview Likon 300mg Tablet

Adult patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder or mania find relief through the use of 300mg Likon tablets. This medication also addresses certain other behavioral disturbances. Its action diminishes both the frequency and severity of manic episodes. For optimal absorption, consume Likon 300mg with food, consistently at the same time each day to ensure steady blood levels. Adherence to the prescribed dosage is crucial; complete the entire course of treatment, even with symptom improvement. Should a dose be missed, take it immediately upon recollection. Continue the medication as directed by your physician; abrupt cessation can have adverse consequences. Potential side effects include motor incoordination (tremors, slurred speech), gastrointestinal upset (nausea, vomiting), dermatological changes (acne, rash, hair loss), hematological effects (increased white blood cell count), neurological symptoms (memory impairment), endocrine alterations (enlarged thyroid), and increased thirst. Weight gain is possible; a healthy diet and regular exercise can help mitigate this. Long-term use necessitates periodic monitoring of thyroid and kidney function.
