About Duloctus M 20mg/750mcg Tablet
Duloctus M 20mg/750mcg Tablet belongs to the class of medications called ‘anticonvulsants’ used to treat neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic (long-term) progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or the nervous system's malfunctioning. It is mainly seen in patients who have suffered a trauma or nerve injury, diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, cancer, multiple sclerosis (a disease of the brain and spinal cord), shingles (a viral infection), and HIV.
Duloctus M 20mg/750mcg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Duloxetine and Methylcobalamin. Duloxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that works by increasing the levels of a chemical messenger (like serotonin and noradrenaline) in the brain required to regulate pain that travels through damaged nerves. On the other hand, Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 that helps rejuvenate and protect damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin (a protective layer of nerve cells).
Take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Duloctus M 20mg/750mcg Tablet may cause side effects such as drowsiness, nausea, constipation, headache, dry mouth, increased sweating, anorexia (loss of appetite), and a hot sensation (burning pain).
