GPLAY (Flupenthixol 0.5Mg + Melitracen 10Mg)

GPLAY Tablet is a combination medicine used in the management of depression. It works by enhancing the levels of certain chemical messengers in the brain that help in calming the mind and stabilizing mood.

This tablet can be taken with or without food, but it's important to take it at the same time every day to maintain steady levels in your body. Follow the dosage and duration prescribed by your doctor carefully. Do not stop taking GPLAY abruptly without consulting your physician, as it may cause a return or worsening of symptoms.

Common side effects may include dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, urinary retention, drowsiness, increased heart rate, muscle stiffness, and tremors. Initially, you might also feel light-headed when changing positions due to a sudden drop in blood pressure—get up slowly if you've been lying down or sitting for a long time. Avoid driving or operating machinery until you understand how this medicine affects you.

Before beginning treatment with GPLAY, tell your doctor if you have any medical conditions such as thyroid issues, kidney disease, Parkinson’s disease, glaucoma, heart problems, or epilepsy. This medicine can also lead to weight gain, so adopting a balanced diet and regular physical activity is advised.
 

Treatment of Depression

In Depression Management:
GPLAY helps regulate mood by balancing key neurotransmitters in the brain. It can reduce feelings of sadness, anxiety, and fatigue, and help you sleep better. With regular use, it minimizes mood fluctuations and makes you feel more in control. You may notice fewer depressive episodes and a general improvement in emotional well-being.

This medicine may take several weeks to show full benefits. You are likely to be prescribed GPLAY for a minimum of six months or longer. For best results, take it consistently and don’t stop without your doctor’s advice.

 

Most side effects are temporary and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, contact your doctor if they persist or become bothersome.

GPLAY Tablet contains two active ingredients: Flupenthixol and Melitracen.

Flupenthixol is an antipsychotic that reduces excessive dopamine activity in the brain, helping to manage thought and mood disturbances.

Melitracen is a tricyclic antidepressant that boosts levels of mood-enhancing chemicals in the brain, aiding in relief from depression and anxiety.

Together, these components help restore mental balance and improve emotional well-being.
