About Tenec Tablet

Tenec Tablet belongs to the class of medications called ‘anxiolytics’ used in the treatment of anxiety disorder. Anxiety is the repeated or persistent feeling of fear and worry about what’s about to come, which can interfere with your daily activities. Symptoms include irritability, lack of concentration, nervousness, fatigue, rapid heartbeat, and trembling.
