Perinorm CD Capsule 10's

Perinorm CD Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called anti-emetics and prokinetic agents used to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and which might occur after migraine. Additionally, Perinorm CD Capsule is also used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), diabetic gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying in people with diabetes), heartburn, ulcers and sores in the oesophagus.

Perinorm CD Capsule contains ‘metoclopramide’ that works by increasing the motility of the upper gastrointestinal tract; this allows faster transit of food and reduces the symptoms of GERD and gastric emptying. It also works on the part of the brain that controls vomiting, thereby helps in preventing nausea and vomiting.

In some cases, Perinorm CD Capsule may cause common side-effects such as restlessness, fatigue, drowsiness, diarrhoea, weakness, and lassitude (lack of energy). Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Do not take Perinorm CD Capsule for more than 3 months as it might increase the risk of tardive dyskinesia (movement disorder). Consult your doctor before taking Perinorm CD Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Perinorm CD Capsule may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so avoid driving until you know how Perinorm CD Capsule affects you. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Perinorm CD Capsule as it could lead to increased drowsiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any interactions.
