Key Benefits
In Treatment of Myasthenia gravisMyasthenia gravis is a neuromuscular disorder that leads to weakness of muscles that are under our control, such as those of the eyes, face, and swallowing. It can result in double vision, drooping eyelids, trouble talking, and trouble walking. It happens due to impaired coordination between muscles and nerves. Gravitor SR Tablet makes this coordination between nerves and muscles better and relieves the symptoms. As a result, your muscle strength is improved and you are able to lead a better life.In Treatment of Post-operative urinary retentionAfter an operation, there may be problems in emptying the bladder. This may be due to disturbed coordination of nerves and muscles of the bladder. Gravitor SR Tablet helps to improve this problem and treats post-operative urinary retention effectively.show moreshow less
