About Alprax Plus Tablet

Alprax Plus Tablet belongs to the class of medications called ‘antidepressant’ used in the treatment of panic disorder with or without agoraphobia (fear of leaving one’s own home or being in open or crowded places).  Panic disorder is characterized by a panic attack in which the patient experiences a sudden feeling of terror even if there is no real danger.

Alprax Plus Tablet contains Alprazolam and Sertraline. Alprazolam is a benzodiazepine. It works by increasing the activity of GABA (a chemical messenger in the brain that acts as a natural nerve-calming agent). Thereby, Alprax Plus Tablet relaxes muscles, produces a calming effect, and helps to fall asleep. Sertraline is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It increases the release of the serotonin hormone in the body, which is responsible for improving mood, cognition, and memory.

You should take this medicine exactly as prescribed by the doctor. The common side-effects of Alprax Plus Tablet are nausea (feeling sick), increased appetite, restlessness, drowsiness, dizziness, headache, constipation, dry mouth, jerks or uncoordinated movements, numbing or tingling sensation, vision problems, tinnitus (ringing in ears), ejaculation failure, and fatigue (extreme tiredness). Inform your doctor immediately if any of these side-effects persist or get worse.

It is not recommended to take Alprax Plus Tablet if you are allergic to any of its contents.
