P-Ppi 40mg Tablet

Product Overview

P-Ppi 40mg Tablet is designed to reduce the production of stomach acid and is used to treat various acid-related conditions such as heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It helps alleviate symptoms and supports the healing process.

This medicine is also helpful in preventing stomach ulcers and acidity that may occur from the long-term use of pain-relieving drugs. It belongs to a group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The tablet should be taken about an hour before meals, preferably in the morning. The dose prescribed will depend on your condition and how your body responds. Continue taking the medication as directed, even if symptoms improve early, to prevent recurrence. Eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding caffeine, spicy foods, and fatty foods can enhance the treatment’s effectiveness.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, flatulence, diarrhea, and stomach pain. These effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if they persist or cause discomfort, consult your doctor. Long-term use, especially for over a year, may increase the risk of bone fractures, particularly at higher doses. Discuss with your doctor about preventing bone loss through calcium and vitamin D supplements.

Before starting the medication, inform your doctor if you have severe liver issues, are on HIV treatments, have had allergic reactions to similar drugs, or suffer from bone-related problems like osteoporosis. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this tablet.
