Nurestat-Plus Tablet SR Substitute

Nurestat-Plus Tablet SR is a combination of two drugs, namely: Epalrestat and Methylcobalamin. Epalrestat prevents the accumulation of sorbitol by inhibiting the aldose reductase enzyme, which catalyses the conversion of glucose to sorbitol. Methylcobalamin helps in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Together, Nurestat-Plus Tablet SR helps in treating diabetic neuropathy.
