Lyta (20Mg) 14 Capsules

Description

Lyta 20mg Capsules contain Duloxetine and are made by Getz Pharma. Duloxetine increases serotonin and noradrenaline activity in the brain and spinal cord. This improves mood and anxiety and also reduces how strongly pain signals are felt, which is why it is used for both depression and certain long-term pain conditions. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
