Overview Prolus 40mg Tablet

AcidGard 40mg tablets diminish stomach acid production. They treat stomach and intestinal conditions like heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, relieving symptoms and aiding healing. AcidGard 40mg tablets also prevent stomach ulcers and acidity often associated with long-term painkiller use. A proton pump inhibitor (PPI), this medication should be taken once daily, an hour before a meal, ideally in the morning. Dosage depends on your condition and response; continue as prescribed, even with rapid symptom improvement. Smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding caffeine, spicy, and fatty foods enhance treatment efficacy. Common, usually mild, side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, gas, diarrhea, and stomach ache. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Extended use may increase side effect risk; prolonged use (over a year) might raise bone fracture risk, particularly at higher doses. Discuss bone loss prevention, such as calcium and vitamin D supplements, with your doctor. Inform your physician of severe liver disease, HIV medication use, prior allergic reactions to similar drugs, or existing osteoporosis before starting treatment. Pregnant or nursing individuals should also seek medical advice before use.
