Is it safe to take Nishq M tablet?
I have been having stomach uneasiness & headache/migraine. A physician prescribed Nishq M, besides some other medicines.
But Google search shows that it is for mental health diseases.
So want to know if it safe to take Nishq M tablet once a day after dinner for 5 days? I told the physician that I don't have stress & sleep quality is fine.
Do I still need to take it?
Thanks

If you don't have any stress and even sleep quality is fine. Then we need to evaluate your headache properly and once it fits into diagnosis of migraine ,then you can start taking tablet FLUNARIZINE 10mg at night ( it's used for migraine) plus you should keep 5-10 tablets of Tab NAXDOM (naproxen 250mg +domoeridome 10mg) on sos basis. Start with a meditation of 2min and try to meditate for 5mins everyday.
Eat your meals on time. And regularise your sleeping time.
You will be completely fine.

As Dr. Nikhil Aggarwal, I understand your concern regarding the prescription of Nishq M for stomach uneasiness and headache/migraine. Nishq M is a combination medication that contains nortriptyline and methylcobalamin. Nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant used to treat depression, while methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12.
While Nishq M is commonly prescribed for mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety, it is also used off-label for certain types of chronic pain, including migraine headaches. The combination of nortriptyline and methylcobalamin may help alleviate neuropathic pain associated with migraine headaches.
However, it's important to note that using Nishq M for stomach uneasiness and migraine headaches should be done under the guidance and supervision of a healthcare professional, preferably a physician or neurologist specializing in headache management.
Here are some considerations regarding the use of Nishq M:
1. **Off-label Use:** Using Nishq M for conditions other than those indicated on the label is considered off-label use. While off-label use of medications is not uncommon, it should be based on clinical judgment and supported by evidence of safety and efficacy.
2. **Consult Your Physician:** Since you have concerns about taking Nishq M and have informed your physician that you don't have stress and your sleep quality is fine, it's important to discuss these concerns with your physician. Your physician can provide further clarification on why Nishq M was prescribed and whether it is appropriate for your specific symptoms.
3. **Side Effects and Risks:** Like all medications, Nishq M can cause side effects and may not be suitable for everyone. Common side effects of nortriptyline include drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision. Methylcobalamin is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience allergic reactions or gastrointestinal upset.
4. **Alternative Treatments:** Your physician may also consider alternative treatments or medications for your symptoms based on your medical history, symptoms, and preferences. This may include lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, stress management techniques, or other medications.
5. **Follow-up:** If you decide to take Nishq M as prescribed, it's important to follow up with your physician to monitor your response to the medication and any potential side effects.
Ultimately, the decision to take Nishq M or any medication should be made in consultation with your healthcare provider, who can provide personalized advice based on your individual health needs and circumstances.
