Duvanta NP 20 Tablet (Duloxetine 20mg/Methylcobalamin)

DUVANTA NP 20 MG 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 mostly seen in patients who had suffered a trauma or nerve injury, diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, cancer, multiple sclerosis (disease of the brain and spinal cord), shingles (a viral infection), and HIV.

DUVANTA NP 20 MG TABLET is a combination of two medicines: Duloxetine and Methylcobalamin. Duloxetine is a selective-serotonin reuptake (SSRI) inhibitor 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. DUVANTA NP 20MG TABLET may cause side-effects such as drowsiness, nausea, constipation, headache, dry mouth, increased sweating, anorexia (loss of appetite) and hot sensation (burning pain). Inform your doctor if any of these side-effects persist.

Do not take DUVANTA NP 20MG TABLET if you are allergic to Duloxetine, Methylcobalamin, or any contents of it. Before taking DUVANTA NP 20MG TABLET, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease, seizures (fits), mania, bipolar disorder, glaucoma (an eye condition), bleeding disorders, or at risk of hyponatremia (low sodium levels, especially in patients taking diuretics or water pills). It is not recommended for use in children and young adults as it increases the risk of suicidal tendencies. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using DUVANTA NP 20MG TABLET.
