Side Effects
Agitation: Do not increase the dose of Moban on your own if you experience agitation (such as restlessness, irritability, aggression, anger, or hostility). This might exacerbate these symptoms. If you notice any of these symptoms, get in touch with your doctor as soon as you can.
Anxiety: Moban users may experience increased anxiety. Contact your doctor as soon as possible if your anxiety is severe or is interfering with your ability to carry out daily tasks.
Blood disorder: Molindone can reduce platelets, which are crucial for clotting, and white blood cells, which are needed to make clots and fight infection. Although these side effects are uncommon, they could be grave or even fatal. Call your doctor right away if you experience any of the following symptoms: Frequent bruising or bleeding (nosebleeds, bleeding gums), black, tarry stools, red patches on the skin, bloody urine or vomit, and coughing up blood or blood clots are all indications of infection.
Dizziness or lightheadedness: This drug may make you feel woozy. Driving and using large machinery shouldn't be done until you understand how Moban affects you.
Persons taking Moban may experience drowsiness and/or decreased alertness. Avoid drinking alcohol while also taking this medication because it will exacerbate these side effects. Until you are confident in your balance, move slowly and carefully when standing up from a sitting position. Eye issues: Some Moban users have complained of vision changes, including blurred vision and eye pain.
While taking this medication, let your doctor know right away if you notice any changes in your vision.
Narrow-angle glaucoma: This medication should not be taken by people who have this condition. Occasionally, people taking Moban may experience an increase in blood pressure. The elderly and those with existing heart disease or high blood pressure are more likely to experience this effect. After beginning Molindone, if headaches or blurred vision suddenly appear, call your doctor right away to rule out an increase in blood pressure before it leads to more serious issues (like a stroke).
Mania: While taking Moban, some bipolar patients may experience mania. Contact your doctor right away if you experience any mania symptoms, which include excessive energy, talking more than usual, racing thoughts, or an expansive or irritable mood.
Movement disorders: People taking Moban may experience tardive dyskinesia, which is characterized by uncontrollable muscle twitches and movements. Elderly patients and those taking long-term high doses of antipsychotic medications are more likely to experience this side effect. Contact your doctor right away if you notice any uncontrollable muscle movements, particularly those involving your face or tongue.
