Epalrestat, an ingredient in Aldonil OD Tablet is a member of the class of drugs known as aldose reductase inhibitors. In order to cure diabetic neuropathy, it is employed. Diabetes patients who have diabetic neuropathy, a type of nerve damage brought on by persistently high blood sugar levels, frequently experience foot and leg pain. Diabetic neuropathy is a severe and frequent complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Symptoms like numbness, pain, or a reduced ability to sense temperature changes, tingling or burning, severe pains or cramps, and muscle weakness are frequently present.

Usage instructions-

• Read the pack carefully and use as directed by your doctor.

How it works-

Epalrestat functions by blocking the aldose reductase enzyme, which turns glucose into sorbitol. The accumulation of extra sorbitol in the cells of diabetics' nerves and other organs results in diabetic neuropathy. Eplerestat delays sorbitol accumulation in nerves and other tissues by inhibiting the enzyme, which delays the onset and progression of diabetic neuropathy in those who are impacted. Your doctor will keep a careful eye on you throughout your Aldonil OD Tablet treatment if you have diabetic peripheral neuropathy with irreversible organic changes.
