Overview Kenta 40mg Tablet

Acipol 40mg tablets decrease stomach acid production. They treat stomach and intestinal conditions like heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, relieving symptoms and fostering healing. Acipol 40mg tablets also prevent ulcers and acidity often associated with long-term painkiller use. Classified as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), this medication should be taken one hour before meals, ideally in the morning. Dosage varies depending on your condition and response. Continue taking it as prescribed, even if symptoms subside rapidly. Smaller, more frequent meals, and avoiding caffeine (tea, coffee), spicy, and fatty foods can enhance treatment. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, gas, diarrhea, and stomach pain—generally mild, but consult your doctor if persistent or bothersome. Prolonged use, especially over a year, may increase the risk of bone fractures, particularly at higher doses. Discuss bone loss (osteoporosis) prevention, such as calcium and vitamin D supplements, with your physician. Inform your doctor of severe liver disease, HIV medication use, prior allergic reactions to similar drugs, or existing osteoporosis before starting treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should also seek medical advice before use.
