LIDOCAINE+NIFEDIPINE consists of two drugs, namely Lidocaine and Nifedipine. Lidocaine belongs to the class of local anaesthesia and is used to diminish inconvenience or pain associated with anal fissures. Being a sedative, it works by causing temporary loss of sensation in the anal region. It does so by blocking both the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses by decreasing the…
NITAZOXANIDE contains Nitazoxanide, which belongs to the class of drugs known as thiazolides. Nitazoxanide is a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic, antiprotozoal, and antiviral medication, primarily used to treat diarrhoea.
MIRABEGRON contains 'mirabegron', which belongs to the class of medications called 'anticholinergics'. It can decrease the activity of the overactive bladder. In an overactive bladder, muscle contractions occur before the full expansion of the bladder, causing the patient to have frequent urges to urinate. MIRABEGRON can stop these sudden contractions of bladder muscles.
NORETHISTERONE contains Norethisterone, a synthetic hormone that mimics the activity of the natural hormone progesterone. Thereby, it restores hormone levels in the body and regulates the growth and shedding of the womb lining. Thus, it helps to treat menstrual disorders.
NORTRIPTYLINE belongs to a group of medicines called tricyclic antidepressants used to prevent depression. It works by affecting certain chemical messengers (serotonin and/or norepinephrine) in the brain which communicate between brain cells, thereby helps in regulating mood and treats depression. NORTRIPTYLINE prevents the transmission of pain signals, thereby provides relief from neuropathic pain.
OFLOXACIN+TINIDAZOLE contains antibiotic Ofloxacin and Tinidazole, which helps treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria and some anaerobic bacteria (that live without oxygen). It is bactericidal and works by killing bacteria that cause infections by preventing the formation of their cell wall required for living.
OLMESARTAN MEDOXOMIL contains ‘Olmesartan medoximil’ which belongs to the class of ‘antihypertensives’. It is primarily used to reduce high blood pressure. It is an angiotensin-II receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks the hormone angiotensin. Angiotensin narrows the blood vessels increasing the blood pressure, therefore blocking angiotensin can result in the widening of the narrowed blood vessels.
OMEPRAZOLE is effective at healing erosive esophagitis (inflammation of food pipe), relieving symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (heartburn), and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, stomach ulcers. OMEPRAZOLE works by irreversibly blocking the proton pump gate (which secretes stomach acid). It can be prescribed to all age groups, including special populations like the elderly, pregnant mothers, and kidney and liver disease patients.
OPIPRAMOL DIHYDROCHLORIDE contains an 'anti-anxiety medication,' Opipramol (a tricyclic antidepressant), which is used to treat general anxiety. It is also used to treat somatic disturbances. It works by increasing the levels of certain chemical messengers in the brain that help in regulating mood and behaviour.
ORCIPRENALINE is a bronchodilator used to treat symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). ORCIPRENALINE works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thereby, it makes breathing easier by opening airways. ORCIPRENALINE helps to prevent an asthma attack and exercise freely if it is taken before exercise.
ORLISTAT contains Orlistat, an anti-obesity drug used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. ORLISTAT works in the small intestine and stomach and prevents the action of enzymes that breakdown fat which is absorbed by the body. ORLISTAT decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the…
Ornidazole Gel contains Chlorhexidine (an antiseptic) and Ornidazole (an antibiotic). Ornidazole Gel is primarily used in treating mouth infections. When microorganisms overgrow the otherwise normally present mouth, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms like mouth sores or ulcers, swollen gums, unpleasant taste changes, and suggestive mouth infections. Chlorhexidine aids in symptom relief by binding to the inner surface of teeth,…
