WHAT PROMESEC CAPSULE 20MG IS
USED FOR
Promesec Capsule 20mg is used to
treat the following conditions:
•
Ulcers in the upper part of the
intestine
(duodenal
ulcer)
or
stomach (gastric ulcer).
•
Ulcers
caused
by
medicines
called
NSAIDs
(Non-Steroidal
Anti-Inflammatory
Drugs).
Promesec Capsule 20mg can also
be used to stop ulcers from forming
if you are taking NSAIDs.
•
Ulcers infected with bacteria
called ‘
_Helicobacter pylori’_
.
•
‘Gastro-esophageal
reflux
disease’ (GERD). This is
where
acid from the stomach escapes into
the
oesophagus
(the
tube
which
connects
your
throat
to
your
stomach),
causing
pain,
inflammation and heartburn.
•
Reflux
oesophagitis
(inflammation of the lining of
oesophagus)
•
Too much acid in the stomach as
a result of growth in the pancreas
or
upper
part
of
the
intestine
(Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome).
•
Acid
related
dyspepsia
(indigestion).
HOW
PROMESEC
CAPSULE
20MG
WORKS
Promesec Capsule 20mg contains
the active substance omeprazole.
It belongs to a group of medicines
called
‘proton
pump
inhibitors’.
They
work
by
reducing
the
amount of acid produced in your
stomach.
Ask your doctor if you have any
questions about why this medicine
has been prescribed to you. Your
doctor may have prescribed it for
another reason.

POSOLOGY
_Duodenal ulcer _
The recommended dosage in patients with an active duodenal ulcer is
omeprazole 20 mg once daily.
Symptom resolution is rapid and in most patients healing occurs within
2 weeks. For those patients who
may not be fully healed after the initial course, healing usually
occurs during a further 2 week treatment
period.
In patients with poorly responsive duodenal ulcer omeprazole 40mg once
daily is recommended and healing
is usually achieved within 4weeks.
For the prevention of relapse in patients with duodenal ulcer disease
the recommended dose is omeprazole
10 mg once daily. If needed the dose can be increased to omeprazole
20¬40mg once daily.
