About MEGAZA CAPSULE

MEGAZA CAPSULE belongs to a class of medications called ‘nutritional supplements used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It primarily treats, improves, controls, and prevents various complications or long-term diseases such as heart, brain, and spinal cord disorders, kidney, skin, respiratory, hormonal, cancer, and immune system problems.

MEGAZA CAPSULE combines two medicines: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). DHA and EPA are omega-3 fatty acids. They can lower cholesterol levels, fight against inflammation, improve cognitive symptoms (memory, learning, and thinking abilities), improve mood and behaviour, and prevent blood clot formation. They can collectively help to treat and control various illnesses.

MEGAZA CAPSULE is available in the form of capsules/tablets and infusion. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of MEGAZA CAPSULE are nausea (feeling sick), vomiting (being sick), abdominal distension, pain, constipation, diarrhoea, dyspepsia (indigestion), gas, belching, and heartburn. These side effects are usually temporary and don’t require medical attention. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately.

Do not take MEGAZA CAPSULE if you are allergic to any contents present in it or fish oils. Before taking MEGAZA CAPSULE, inform your doctor if you have bleeding disorders, diabetes, hypotension (low blood pressure), aspirin sensitivity, arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat), undergone surgery recently,  trauma recently, and liver or kidney diseases. Inform your doctor if you are taking blood pressure-lowering medications or blood thinners. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Medicinal Benefits

MEGAZA CAPSULE combines two medicines: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). DHA and EPA are omega-3 fatty acids. They can reduce triglyceride levels and increase the body's high-density lipoprotein (good cholesterol) levels. This effect helps in reducing the risk of heart disease. They also have anticoagulant (decrease blood clotting) and anti-inflammatory (treat inflammation) properties. They also help improve cognitive symptoms (learning and thinking abilities), especially in patients with brain disorders. Together, MEGAZA CAPSULE helps to fight against various neurological diseases, heart diseases, hormonal disorders, skin problems, respiratory illnesses and cancer.
