Peptazol 30Mg 14Cap

Peptazol is a medication that belongs to the class of proton pump inhibitors and is used to treat conditions of increased stomach acid such as peptic ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease. It works by reducing acid production in the stomach, which helps alleviate symptoms associated with these conditions.

Peptazol, which contains the active ingredient lansoprazole, works by inhibiting the proton pump enzyme in the stomach cells. This inhibition reduces acid secretion, leading to decreased acidity in the stomach and improved symptoms such as heartburn and acid reflux. This medication is effectively used in treating peptic ulcers, esophagitis due to reflux, and it also helps prevent the recurrence of these conditions.
