Selanz 30 mg Capsule is an effective treatment for duodenal and gastric ulcers, designed to reduce stomach acid and promote the healing of ulcers.

This medication is also used in the treatment and prevention of other acid-related conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Selanz provides relief while protecting the stomach lining, aiding in faster recovery from ulcers without causing significant side effects when taken as directed.
