ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S

How ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S Works

• ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S works by interfering with the way your body processes alcohol. When you consume alcohol, your body breaks it down into acetaldehyde, a toxic substance that causes many of the unpleasant effects of a hangover.
• ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S blocks the action of an enzyme called aldehyde dehydrogenase, which is responsible for converting acetaldehyde into a less harmful substance. As a result, acetaldehyde accumulates in the body at much higher levels than normal when alcohol is consumed.
• This build-up of acetaldehyde leads to a rapid and intensely unpleasant reaction, including symptoms like nausea, vomiting, flushing, headache, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath. These effects are intended to deter individuals from drinking alcohol while taking ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S.
• The purpose of ESPERAL 250MG TABLET 10'S isn't to eliminate the desire to drink, but rather to create a strong deterrent through the unpleasant physical reactions. This helps individuals abstain from alcohol and maintain their sobriety, especially as part of a broader treatment program that includes counseling and support.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them.
