Amixide-5 Tablet

Treatment of Depression

In Depression

Amixide-5 restores the balance of the brain's chemical messengers, gradually lifting mood, energy, sleep and appetite. The benefit builds over several weeks, which is why it is important to keep taking it.

In Anxiety

Amixide-5 calms persistent worry and the physical tension that goes with it, so that everyday situations feel manageable again.

In Obsessive compulsive disorder

Amixide-5 reduces the intrusive thoughts and the urge to repeat rituals, usually alongside talking therapy.

In Nerve pain

Amixide-5 dampens the pain signals from damaged nerves, easing burning, shooting or tingling pain that ordinary painkillers do not touch.

In Migraine prevention

Amixide-5, taken every day, reduces how often migraines come and how severe they are. It does not treat an attack once it has started.

In Insomnia

Amixide-5 helps you fall asleep and stay asleep when sleep has broken down, so you can function the next day while the cause is dealt with.

In Panic disorder

Amixide-5 reduces the frequency and intensity of panic attacks, giving breathing space for longer-term treatment to work.

In Seizures

Amixide-5 stops a prolonged seizure or a cluster of seizures quickly, and is used in some forms of epilepsy to prevent them.

In Muscle spasm

Amixide-5 relaxes severe muscle spasm and the pain it causes, including spasm caused by nerve conditions.
