Product Introduction
Nuromark NT 400/10 mg Tablet is a combination medication used to manage neuropathic pain, particularly in conditions like diabetic neuropathy and post-herpetic neuralgia. It contains:
Gabapentin (400 mg): A gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) analogue that modulates calcium channel activity in nerve cells, reducing abnormal electrical activity and alleviating pain.​
Nortriptyline (10 mg): A tricyclic antidepressant that increases the levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain, which help in blocking pain signals.​
Together, these components work synergistically to provide effective relief from nerve-related pain.​
