Description
Product Introduction: Apnicid 40mg Tablet is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medication that reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is primarily used for treating acid-related diseases, such as heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. By lowering stomach acid levels, it provides relief from symptoms and promotes healing of the stomach lining.
Apnicid 40mg Tablet is also effective in preventing stomach ulcers and acidity caused by prolonged use of painkillers. It is most effective when taken one hour before meals, ideally in the morning. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage, even if symptoms subside quickly, to ensure full benefit.
