Scientific Evidence

Pharmacological effects: Sulpiride, the active ingredient in Eglonil, acts as a selective dopamine D2 and D3 receptor antagonist. It exerts its antipsychotic effects by modulating dopaminergic neurotransmission in the brain, leading to improved symptoms in patients with schizophrenia.

Clinical trials: Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of sulpiride in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. A study by Moller et al. (2005) showed that sulpiride was effective in reducing positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia compared to placebo, with a favorable side effect profile.

Additional Information

Eglonil tablets should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. If you experience any severe side effects or allergic reactions, seek medical attention immediately.

It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly while taking Eglonil to monitor your response to the medication and adjust the dosage if needed.
