Product introduction

Take it in the exact dose and duration for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Do not stop taking the medicine until you have finished the complete course. The effects are lost if the medication is stopped.


Dutamax M 2.5mg Tablet may be taken with or without food. Take it in the exact dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor.
