Prolinate Injection

Prescription Required

Product introduction

Prolinate Injection is used in the treatment of schizophrenia. It may also be used to treat depression and bipolar disorder. It alters the thoughts and elevates the mood, improving the person’s ability to think, feel and behave.

Prolinate Injection is used to treat certain mental disorders such as schizophrenia (a mental illness which causes disturbed thinking, strong emotions and abnormal behaviour), mania (an abnormally elevated mood state), behavioural problems in adults and children and symptoms of Tourette's disease (repetative uncontrolled movements and sounds).

Benefits of Prolinate Injection

In Treatment of Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder in which a person’s thinking ability, feelings, and behavior become abnormal. Prolinate Injection helps restore the chemical imbalances in the brain that are responsible for such changes. It improves thoughts, behavior and enhances the quality of life.

In Treatment of Depression

Prolinate Injection helps in maintaining the balance of certain chemicals in the brain that affect mood and behavior. This improves your mood, relieves anxiety, tension, helps you sleep better, and increases your energy levels. Prolinate Injection prevents extreme mood changes and helps you feel less agitated. You may experience fewer episodes of depression and low mood.

In Treatment of Bipolar disorder

Prolinate Injection works to restore the normal balance of nerve activity in your brain. It can help prevent extreme changes in mood and help you feel less agitated. You may experience fewer episodes of low mood. It can take several weeks for this medicine to work and you may still feel low during this time. You should continue to eat well and keep fit to reduce symptoms of bipolar disorder.

Prolinate injection is not avlaible can u tell me the subsutuite
Dr. Jyoti Kapoor Madan
Psychiatry
There are other antipsychotic drugs but these are not substitutes. For starting a new antipsychotic, a proper psychiatric evaluation is needed.
Patient has been taking Prolinate injection for several years and it suits her well - no side effects. We have prescription for Prolinate but it is not available. The website shows Monazine is a substitute injection with same composition. Can you prescribe it for Ms PATIENT based on the original prescription? My order is getting cancelled since Monazine is not on the original prescription. Thanks, anjana
