Overview Pento 40mg Tablet
Acidaze 40mg tablets diminish stomach acid production. This medication treats stomach and intestinal conditions like heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, easing symptoms and fostering healing. Acidaze 40mg also prevents ulcers and acidity often associated with long-term painkiller use. Classified as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), it should be taken once daily, an hour before a meal, ideally in the morning. Dosage varies based on individual needs and response. Continue taking it as prescribed, even with rapid symptom relief. Smaller, more frequent meals, along with avoiding caffeine, spicy foods, and fatty meals, enhance treatment effectiveness. Common, usually mild, side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, gas, diarrhea, and stomach pain. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Prolonged use, especially exceeding one year and at higher doses, may increase the risk of bone fractures. Discuss bone loss prevention, such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation, with your physician. Inform your doctor of severe liver disease, HIV medication use, prior allergic reactions to similar drugs, or existing osteoporosis before starting Acidaze 40mg. This also applies to pregnant or breastfeeding individuals.
