Pexopram 1 Tablet 10 contains pramipexole (1 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Dopamine Receptor Stimulation: Pramipexole mimics the action of dopamine, an important chemical messenger in the brain that helps control movement and coordination.

• Brain Signal Improvement: By activating dopamine receptors, particularly in areas of the brain affected by Parkinson's disease, it helps improve the transmission of signals that control movement.

• Neurotransmitter Balance: The medicine helps restore the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, compensating for the dopamine deficiency caused by the degeneration of nerve cells in Parkinson's disease.

• Symptom Reduction: Through its action on dopamine pathways, pramipexole effectively reduces tremors, muscle stiffness, and slow movement associated with Parkinson's disease.

• Restless Legs Relief: In patients with restless legs syndrome, the medicine decreases the unpleasant sensations and uncontrollable urge to move the legs by normalising dopamine activity.

• Store in a cool, dry place in the original packaging.

• Keep all medicines out of reach of children.

• Discard any unused medicine properly.

• Include foods rich in antioxidants (like berries, nuts, and green vegetables) in your diet, as they may help protect brain cells from further damage.

• Avoid caffeine in the evening, as it can worsen symptoms and interfere with your sleep when you have this condition.
