Overview Tolaz DT 10 Tablet

Tolaz DT 10 tablets treat schizophrenia (a mental illness causing hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking/behavior) and mania. Administer this medication with or without food, but consistently at the same time daily for optimal blood levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recall. Discontinue use only under your physician's guidance; abrupt cessation may exacerbate symptoms. Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, muscle stiffness, and agitation. Initially, postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drops upon standing) may occur; rise slowly from sitting or lying positions. Drowsiness and dizziness are also possible; avoid driving or activities requiring concentration until the medication's effects are known. Weight gain, elevated blood sugar, and increased cholesterol are potential side effects, mitigable through diet and exercise. Rarely, serious adverse reactions such as severe hyperglycemia or convulsions may arise.
