INTRODUCTION ABOUT OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER

OMEZ
INSTA MG POWDER contains Omeprazole which belongs to the group of
medicines called Proton pump inhibitors. It is used in the management of
gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (acid contents in the stomach flow
back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach causing heartburn,
nausea, vomiting, bitter taste, discomfort in upper abdomen) in children
(above 1 month of age) and adults.

It is used in adults to
manage gastric (stomach) and duodenal ulcers (upper part of the
intestine), ulcers infected with Helicobacter pylori bacteria in
addition with antibiotics (including children over 4 years of age) and
ulcers due to the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Before taking OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER, tell your doctor if you
have any severe liver problems, weight loss for no reason, stomach pain
or indigestion, severe or persistent diarrhoea, osteoporosis (a
condition in which bones become weak and brittle) and schedule for a
specific blood test (chromogranin A).

OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER can
be used in pregnant or breastfeeding women only if advised by the
doctor. It is not recommended for use in children under 1 month of age.

OMEZ
INSTA MG POWDER should be used with caution in elderly patients (aged
above 65 years) due to the increased risk of fractures, especially if
used in higher doses and over long durations (>1 year).

The
most common side effects of taking OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER are headache,
diarrhoea, stomach pain, constipation and flatulence. Consult your
doctor if any of the side effects worsen or bother you.

USES OF OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER

Used in the management of the following conditions:

gastric (stomach) ulcer, duodenal ulcer

HOW OMEZ INSTA MG POWDER WORKS

OMEZ
INSTA MG POWDER suppresses the amount of acid produced in the stomach
by blocking the action of the gastric proton pump present in the cells
of stomach lining. This kind of action helps to reduce vomiting, promote
the healing of damaged stomach tissue in ulcers.
