Clomipril 75 mg Tablets

Clomipril 75 mg Tablets contains Clomipramine 75mg, a tricyclic antidepressant. Made by Libra Pharmaceutical Ltd, it is prescribed for depression, OCD, panic disorder, phobias and cataplexy in narcolepsy. Pack size: 20 tablets.

Uses of Clomipril 75 mg Tablets

Clomipril 75 mg Tablets is used to treat depression and is particularly useful for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), where it can reduce intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours. It is also prescribed for panic disorder and phobias, and occasionally for sudden muscle weakness (cataplexy) in narcolepsy. Benefits usually take a few weeks to appear, so it is important to keep taking it as prescribed.

How Clomipril 75 mg Tablets works

Clomipramine blocks the reabsorption of serotonin and, to a lesser extent, noradrenaline into nerve cells, increasing the amount of these mood-regulating chemicals available in the brain. Its strong effect on serotonin is thought to explain its benefit in OCD.

Possible side effects

Especially in the first few weeks, Clomipril 75 mg Tablets may cause:

• Dry mouth
• Drowsiness or tiredness
• Constipation
• Dizziness
• Sweating
• Blurred vision

Seek help immediately if you have thoughts of harming yourself, a fast or irregular heartbeat, a fit, or a high fever with stiffness, agitation and confusion. Difficulty passing urine also needs prompt medical advice.

Precautions and warnings

• Tell your doctor if you have heart disease or a recent heart attack, epilepsy, glaucoma, an enlarged prostate, liver disease or bipolar disorder.
• Do not take it with MAOI antidepressants, and check with your doctor before combining it with other medicines that raise serotonin, such as SSRIs or tramadol.
• Do not stop it suddenly; your doctor will reduce the dose gradually to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
• Avoid alcohol and do not drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you.
• An overdose of tricyclic antidepressants is dangerous, so store it safely, and talk to your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
