Parkinson's disease
Premizen 0.25 Tablet is effective in relieving symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as tremors, muscle stiffness, and difficulty moving. It increases the amount of a chemical called dopamine in the brain which helps in the coordination of body movements. This medicine can therefore enhance the quality of life by improving the ability to carry out daily functions in a better manner.

Restless leg syndrome
Restless leg syndrome is a condition that causes an uncontrollable urge to move your legs, usually because of an uncomfortable sensation. It typically happens in the evening or nighttime hours when you're sitting or lying down. Moving or walking, that is change in posture, will control the unpleasant feeling temporarily. Premizen 0.25 Tablet helps to relieve this uncomfortable urge and calms these sensations. Take it as advised by the doctor to get the maximum relief.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
