Uses of Maxpride 50mg Tablet
What is it prescribed for?
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, behaves, expresses emotions, and perceives reality. The symptoms include hearing voices, visual hallucinations, disorganized thoughts, delusion (an unshakable belief in things that are not true), etc. Maxpride 50 MG Tablet is used in the treatment of schizophrenia.
When not to use?
Allergy
Avoid taking Maxpride 50 MG Tablet if you are allergic to it. Seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms such as skin rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, breathing difficulty, etc.
Phaeochromocytoma
Phaeochromocytoma is a rare tumour of the adrenal glands (a small gland located on top of your kidney that is responsible for producing chemical substances known as hormones). It is often associated with symptoms such as high blood pressure, increased heartbeat, sweating, headache, etc. Avoid taking Maxpride 50 MG Tablet if you have pheochromocytoma as it may result in a hypertensive crisis (a severe increase in blood pressure with a high risk of other complications that may be life-threatening).
Prolactin dependent tumour
Prolactin-dependent tumour is a tumour that develops due to an excess of prolactin hormone in the body. Women with higher blood levels of prolactin have a higher risk of breast cancer. Also, prolactinoma is a tumour of the pituitary gland (a gland at the base of the brain) that produces an excessive amount of the hormone prolactin. Maxpride 50 MG Tablet is not recommended for use if you have prolactinoma or breast cancer as it may further worsen your condition.
Levodopa
Levodopa is a medicine used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (a brain disorder that affects movement with symptoms such as tremors, shakiness, stiffness, difficulty in walking, impaired balance and coordination, etc.). Combined use of Maxpride 50 MG Tablet and Levodopa is not recommended as the effects of these medicines are exactly the opposite. Thus it will reduce the effectiveness of both medications and also increase the risk of undesired effects.
