Peptazol 15Mg 14Tab

Peptazol is a medication that belongs to the class of proton pump inhibitors, used to treat conditions such as gastric ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It works by reducing acid production in the stomach, helping to alleviate symptoms associated with excess acid.

Peptazol contains the active ingredient lansoprazole, which works by inhibiting the proton pump enzyme in the stomach cells. This inhibition leads to reduced acid secretion, contributing to the healing of ulcers and decreasing symptoms such as acidity and heartburn. Peptazol is also used in the prevention of ulcers caused by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This medication is effective in improving the quality of life for patients suffering from acid-related gastrointestinal issues.
