Scientific Evidence:

Sulpiride, the active ingredient in Sulpirid-ZN tablets, exerts its antipsychotic effects primarily through selective blockade of dopamine D2 receptors in the brain. This mechanism helps in alleviating the positive symptoms of schizophrenia such as hallucinations and delusions.

Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of sulpiride in the management of schizophrenia. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology showed that sulpiride was effective in improving both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia with a favorable side effect profile.

Additional Information:

It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment with Sulpirid-ZN tablets as directed by your healthcare provider to achieve the best therapeutic outcomes. Abrupt discontinuation of the medication may lead to withdrawal symptoms.

Before using Sulpirid-ZN tablets, inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking, especially other antipsychotic drugs, to avoid potential drug interactions.
