Secmin-10 Tablet 10's is used to treat depression. Additionally, it is also used to treat neuropathic pain and bedwetting at night. It contains Nortriptyline, which works by affecting certain chemical messengers (serotonin, norepinephrine) in the brain which communicate between brain cells, thereby regulating mood and preventing depression.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as increased heart rate, flushing, drowsiness, weight gain, difficulty in urination, orthostatic hypotension (sudden lowering of blood pressure on standing), dryness in the mouth, tingling in the arms or legs, blurred vision (dilated pupils). Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.
