Xenaxine (containing Tetrabenazine) is a high-performance monoamine depletor indicated for the treatment of hyperkinetic movement disorders, most notably the chorea associated with Huntington’s disease. By specifically and reversibly inhibiting the Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 (VMAT2) in the brain, Xenaxine effectively reduces the amount of dopamine available at the nerve endings. It is an essential therapy for managing involuntary, jerky movements, providing significant improvement in motor control and the overall quality of life for patients with neurodegenerative conditions.
Using Xenaxine as part of a medically supervised neurological care plan offers several targeted therapeutic benefits:
Effectively Reduces Chorea: Specifically targets and dampens the severity of involuntary "dance-like" movements characteristic of Huntington's disease.
Improves Functional Mobility: By stabilizing motor coordination, it helps patients perform daily activities with greater precision and safety.
Treats Tardive Dyskinesia: Provides a clinical solution for persistent involuntary movements caused by long-term use of certain psychiatric medications.
Selective VMAT2 Inhibition: Works primarily within the central nervous system, minimizing systemic side effects compared to older non-selective dopamine blockers.
Customizable Dosing Profile: Allows for precise titration to find the lowest effective dose for each individual’s unique neurological needs.
Xenaxine Tablets (Tetrabenazine) are manufactured by Lundbeck, a world-renowned pharmaceutical leader based in Denmark that is exclusively dedicated to brain health. Produced in state-of-the-art, GMP-compliant facilities that adhere to the strictest European and international safety and quality standards, Lundbeck ensures that every Xenaxine tablet meets rigorous criteria for purity, bioavailability, and clinical efficacy. At Sanlive Pharmacy, we source Xenaxine directly from verified Lundbeck distributors to ensure our patients in Nigeria receive authentic, high-standard medication for their neurological health.
Xenaxine utilizes a targeted biochemical mechanism for motor stabilization:
Tetrabenazine (25mg): A VMAT2 inhibitor that prevents the storage of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in synaptic vesicles, reducing their release.
Selective Neurotransmitter Depletion: Formulated to focus on the basal ganglia—the area of the brain responsible for movement control.
To achieve optimal results with Xenaxine Tablets, follow these guidelines:
Suggested Dosage: The dose is strictly individualized and must be gradually increased (titrated) by your neurologist, usually starting at 12.5mg once daily.
Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. It can be taken with or without food.
Timing: For doses above 25mg daily, the medication is typically divided into two or three doses spread throughout the day.
Consistency: Take your medication at the same time each day to maintain stable levels in the brain. Do not stop taking Xenaxine suddenly without consulting your doctor.
Important Safety Note: Xenaxine can increase the risk of depression and suicidal thoughts; patients and caregivers should monitor mood changes closely. This medication may cause significant drowsiness (somnolence) or parkinsonism (stiffness and tremors). If you experience severe restlessness (akathisia) or difficulty swallowing, seek medical advice immediately. Use with caution in patients with a history of liver impairment.
