Nortimer 25 mg
Nortimer 25 mg is one of a class of drugs known as ‘tricyclic antidepressants,’ which are used to treat depression. It’s also used to help with neuropathic pain and nighttime bedwetting. Depression is a mental disease or disorder that causes considerable impairment in everyday living due to a consistently low mood or loss of interest in activities.
Nortimer 25 mg includes Nortriptyline, which regulates mood and prevents depression by changing particular chemical messengers (serotonin, norepinephrine) in the brain that communicate between brain cells.
