Description
Macpram Tablets 5mg contain Escitalopram Oxalate, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) prescribed for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) in adults. By selectively inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin at presynaptic neurons, Escitalopram increases serotonin availability in the synaptic cleft, improving mood, motivation, and emotional stability.
Escitalopram 5mg is the lower therapeutic starting dose, often used in older patients, those with hepatic impairment, or patients being initiated on SSRI therapy under close medical supervision. It is always a prescription-only medicine regardless of dose. Regular follow-up with your prescribing physician is essential, particularly during the first few weeks of treatment, as mood changes or unusual behaviour should be reported promptly.
Common side effects include nausea, dry mouth, insomnia, fatigue, sweating, and decreased libido. Patients with a history of seizures, mania, hypomania, or diabetes should inform their doctor before initiating therapy. Do not discontinue Macpram abruptly — gradual tapering under medical guidance is required to prevent withdrawal effects.
