Aldonil Od Tablet 10

Aldonil OD Tablet is used to manage diabetic neuropathy, a common complication of diabetes that leads to nerve damage, particularly in the legs and feet. It helps reduce symptoms like burning, tingling, numbness, and sharp pains associated with nerve damage. By inhibiting the enzyme aldose reductase, it helps protect the nerves from further damage and supports overall nerve health.

Aldonil OD Tablet contains Epalrestat (150 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Aldose Reductase Inhibition: Epalrestat blocks an enzyme called aldose reductase in your body. This enzyme normally converts excess glucose into sorbitol in people with high blood sugar.
• Sorbitol Reduction: By inhibiting the aldose reductase enzyme, the medicine decreases the production and buildup of sorbitol in the nerves.
• Prevention of Osmotic Stress: Reducing sorbitol accumulation helps prevent osmotic stress in nerve cells. Osmotic stress is a condition where too much fluid enters cells, causing them to swell and become damaged.
• Neuroprotection: Through these actions, epalrestat helps protect nerves from further damage, slowing down the progression of diabetic neuropathy.

• Store Aldonil OD Tablet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

• Protect from moisture and humidity.
• Store in original packaging until ready to use.
• Keep out of reach of children.

• Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly, as diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage caused by diabetes) worsens with poorly controlled glucose levels.
• Include foods rich in B vitamins (such as whole grains, eggs, and leafy greens) in your diet, as these nutrients support nerve health and may help reduce neuropathic symptoms.
