Overview Revocon Tablet
Huntington's disease-related chorea, a neurological condition marked by uncontrolled, abrupt movements, is treated with Revocon tablets. These tablets regulate dopamine levels, thereby lessening involuntary movements and enhancing functional capacity, improving ease of movement and overall function. Revocon can be administered with or without food; however, consistent daily timing is recommended for optimal therapeutic blood levels. Follow your physician's prescribed dosage and duration. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recollection. Abrupt cessation is inadvisable without consulting your doctor, as this could exacerbate symptoms. Immediately discontinue use if neuroleptic malignant syndrome develops (characterized by fever, muscular stiffness, altered mental state, or convulsions). Common side effects include nausea, sleep disturbances (insomnia), anxiety, tiredness, akathisia (inability to remain still), and depression. Dizziness and drowsiness may occur; avoid driving or tasks demanding concentration until the drug's effects are understood. Report any unusual mood or behavioral changes, new or worsening depression, or suicidal ideation to your doctor while using this medication.
