Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Zolfresh 10 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

In Anxiety
Zolfresh calms the nervous system quickly, easing acute anxiety, panic and the racing heart and tremor that go with it. It is intended for short-term use.
In Insomnia
Zolfresh 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
Zolfresh reduces the frequency and intensity of panic attacks, giving breathing space for longer-term treatment to work.
In Seizures
Zolfresh stops a prolonged seizure or a cluster of seizures quickly, and is used in some forms of epilepsy to prevent them.
In Muscle spasm
Zolfresh relaxes severe muscle spasm and the pain it causes, including spasm caused by nerve conditions.

Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic (Z-drug) that enhances the effect of GABA at the GABA-A receptor (preferentially via the BZ1/omega-1 site). This reduces neuronal activity in the brain, helping induce sleep.
