Working of Quetiapine 200mg tablets

It modulates the activity of neurotransmitters like Dopamine D2 and Serotonin (5-HT2A) in the brain. This dual action stabilizes mood, improves sleep, reduces agitation, and manages psychotic symptoms without causing severe side effects associated with older antipsychotic drugs. RESTOPIN 200 is a mid-to-high strength formulation of Quetiapine designed to provide consistent symptom control for patients with complex psychiatric conditions. Its atypical antipsychotic profile allows for a better tolerability rate and a broader spectrum of mood stabilization. Always consult a healthcare professional for correct usage, and never discontinue the medicine abruptly.
