Dona plus 0.5mg/10mg Tablet 10s is a combined medication belonging to a group called ''antianxiety medications''. It is utilized in treating anxiety disorders and depression. Anxiety is a mental health condition characterized by intense and persistent feelings of excessive worry or fear, which can disrupt daily activities.

This combination comprises Escitalopram Oxalate, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), and Clonazepam, a benzodiazepine. Together, they provide dual support for managing anxiety and improving emotional wellbeing.

It affects GABA, a neurotransmitter that regulates brain nerve cell activity, helping alleviate abnormal brain activity linked to anxiety. Escitalopram boosts serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter influencing mood positively. The combination creates a synergistic effect, enhancing the management of anxiety and mood-related concerns.

Follow your doctor's instructions for the prescribed dose and duration. You can take this medicine with or without food, but it's recommended to take it at the same time daily.

Common side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, drowsiness, and vomiting. These effects may vary in intensity and occurrence among individuals.

This medication combination is not advised for individuals under 18. Consult your healthcare provider for alternative options for younger patients. There's a risk of increased suicidal tendencies; close monitoring for mood changes is crucial. Inform your doctor about all current prescriptions, as there may be potential interactions. Avoid alcohol consumption, as it may amplify side effects or drowsiness.

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as possible. However, if it's close to the time for your next scheduled dose, it's advisable to skip the missed one. Avoid doubling the dose to make up for the missed one.
