Apo Clomipramine How to Take

Clomipramine belongs to the class of medications known as tricyclic antidepressants. It is used to treat Depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD). These disorders are related to imbalances of certain brain chemicals. Apo Clomipramine helps to re-establish balance to these chemicals. It may take several days to a few weeks to see a significant benefit.

If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking Apo Clomipramine, speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking Apo Clomipramine without consulting your doctor.

Apo Clomipramine Dosage

The recommended adult dose of clomipramine ranges from 25 mg to 200 mg daily in divided doses, or as a single dose at bedtime. The dose depends on individual circumstances, but is usually started low and increased gradually as required and as prescribed by the doctor. Clomipramine may be taken with or without food. Taking it with food may decrease the chance of stomach upset.

Children and adolescents (10 to 17 years old) usually begin with a dose of 25 mg daily, increasing the dose by 25 mg every 3 to 4 days as prescribed by the doctor.

When discontinuing the medication, the dosage should be reduced gradually to prevent withdrawal effects.

Many things can affect the dose of a medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.

It is important to take Apo Clomipramine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule.
