Overview Arcool LS 75mg/20mg Capsule SR

Gastro-intestinal medication, Arcool LS 75mg/20mg sustained-release capsules, requires a doctor's prescription for managing conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome. This medicine lessens excessive stomach acid and prevents its backflow into the esophagus. Dosage and duration are determined by your physician and should be followed precisely. Premature discontinuation may lead to symptom recurrence and condition exacerbation. Inform your doctor of all other medications you're using, as interactions are possible. Common side effects include nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, gas, constipation, headache, fatigue, and flu-like symptoms; most are transient. Report any concerning side effects immediately. Drowsiness and dizziness are potential effects; avoid driving or mentally demanding tasks until you understand the medication's impact. Alcohol consumption should be avoided due to increased drowsiness risk. Lifestyle improvements—a high-fiber diet, symptom-trigger food avoidance, increased hydration, and regular exercise—can enhance treatment outcomes. Disclose any kidney or liver issues, and inform your doctor of pregnancy, pregnancy planning, or breastfeeding before starting this medication.
