Description
Product Introduction:
Sompraz 40 Tablet is a medication used to treat conditions caused by excessive stomach acid production. These conditions include gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. By reducing the amount of acid in the stomach, Sompraz 40 helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn, stomach pain, and acid reflux, and promotes healing of ulcers.
In addition to treating the above conditions, Sompraz 40 Tablet can also be used to prevent stomach ulcers that can occur due to the use of certain medications, especially nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
This medicine is typically taken in the morning on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before meals, to ensure it works effectively. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
Key Ingredient:
- Esomeprazole (40mg): A proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that works by blocking the proton pumps in the stomach lining, reducing the production of stomach acid.
Key Benefits:
- Treatment of GERD (Acid Reflux): Relieves symptoms such as heartburn and chest pain caused by acid reflux by reducing stomach acid production.
- Peptic Ulcer Disease: Helps heal ulcers in the stomach and duodenum by decreasing stomach acid, allowing the lining to heal.
- Treatment of Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome: This condition causes excessive acid production in the stomach, leading to multiple ulcers. Sompraz helps control the acid production and alleviates symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea.
- Prevention of Stomach Ulcers: Useful for people taking NSAIDs, as it prevents damage to the stomach lining caused by these drugs.
How Sompraz 40 Tablet Works: Sompraz 40 Tablet is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It works by blocking the proton pumps in the stomach, which are responsible for producing stomach acid.
