Product Details

Esomega Capsules 40mg contain esomeprazole, a powerful proton pump inhibitor (PPI) designed to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach. This medication binds irreversibly to the proton pumps in the stomach lining, effectively decreasing hydrochloric acid secretion. Capsules provide long-lasting relief from conditions such as GERD, gastritis, and peptic ulcers by helping to heal the stomach lining and manage symptoms of acidity.

Purposes

Esomega Capsules 40mg are primarily used to treat heartburn, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastritis, and ulcers. They work by reducing acid production in the stomach, providing relief from acid-related discomfort and aiding in the healing of ulcers. Patients with frequent heartburn or acid-related damage can benefit from Capsules for symptom management and long-term gastric health.

Warnings

Prolonged use of Esomega Capsules may lead to side effects such as hypomagnesemia (low magnesium levels) or osteoporosis-related fractures, especially when taken in high doses or over extended periods. Additionally, the medication may interact with certain drugs, including clopidogrel, potentially reducing its effectiveness. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking before starting Esomega Capsules.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Capsules 40mg include headache, gastrointestinal upset, dry mouth, and skin reactions. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as angioedema, anaphylaxis, or fundic gland polyps may occur. Patients experiencing severe allergic reactions or difficulty breathing should stop taking the medication and seek medical attention immediately.

Cautions

Patients using Capsules for longer than three years should be aware of the potential for vitamin B12 malabsorption. If you have a history of kidney or liver issues, consult your doctor for appropriate dosage adjustments. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their physician before using Capsules to ensure safety. Always follow the prescribed dosage and avoid exceeding recommended use.
