Description

Nitrazepam Tablets are used for short-term relief of severe anxiety and insomnia (sleep disorders). Usually, these tablets are prescribed in combination with other medicines. Nitrazepam tablets belong to the benzodiazepine class of drugs and are commonly prescribed to help calm the brain and nerves. This makes it easier for individuals to fall asleep and stay asleep. Nitrazepam works by enhancing the effects of a natural chemical in the brain called GABA. GABA is a neurotransmitter that helps to relax muscles, reduce anxiety, and promote sleep.  When GABA level increases, it reduces the activity of the brain, which helps you feel more relaxed and promotes better sleep. This makes Nitrazepam highly effective for treating insomnia and anxiety in the short term.
