ARAVON TABLET is used in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (a nervous system disease that weakens the muscles and impairs physical functions). It is an antioxidant that slows down nerve damage and prevents further progression of the disease. ARAVON TABLET may be taken with or without food. However, it is advised to take it at the same time each day as this helps to maintain a consistent level of medicine in the body. Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Do not stop taking it suddenly without talking to your doctor as it may worsen your symptoms. If you miss any doses, take it as soon as you remember it. However, if it is time for your next scheduled dose, take it as per the regular time. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed dose as it will only cause undesired side effects. Some of the common side effects that may be seen with this medicine include headache, bruising, and walking difficulties. However, these are temporary and usually resolve on their own. Please consult your doctor if these do not subside or bother you. You should inform the doctor if you develop any allergic reactions like itching, swelling of the lips, tongue, or face, after taking the medication as these require immediate medical attention.
