Nimotor 30 Tablet belongs to the group of medicines called calcium channel blockers used to prevent brain function changes after subarachnoid haemorrhage (bleeding around the brain). Nimotor 30 Tablet relaxes the smooth muscles of the small blood vessels in the brain, allowing narrowed blood vessels to open up, making it easier for the blood to flow.
