Pentasa 1G 60Tab
Pentasa is a medication used to treat inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis. It belongs to a class of drugs known as anti-inflammatories. It works by reducing inflammation in the intestines and improving symptoms associated with this condition.
Pentasa contains the active ingredient Mesalazine, which works by inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals in the intestines. This helps to reduce symptoms such as pain, diarrhea, and bleeding. It also promotes healing in the intestinal lining and reduces the risk of new flare-ups of the disease. This medication is commonly used in the management of ulcerative colitis.
