Ulcertret-20 (Omeprazole) 20mg – 14 Capsules

Ulcertret-20 is a trusted proton pump inhibitor (PPI) containing Omeprazole 20mg. It is specially formulated as gastro-resistant capsules to provide long-lasting relief from stomach acid-related conditions. Whether you are dealing with persistent heartburn, gastric ulcers, or GERD, Ulcertret-20 works by reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach.

This medication is widely used in Nigeria for managing "stomach heat" and acid reflux symptoms, providing a reliable solution for digestive comfort.

Key Benefits of Ulcertret-20

• Effective Acid Control: Provides 24-hour relief from acidity and "heartburn" discomfort by blocking acid production at the source.
• Promotes Ulcer Healing: Helps in the healing process of gastric and duodenal ulcers by creating a low-acid environment.
• Manages GERD: Reduces acid regurgitation and "bitter taste" in the mouth associated with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.
• Combination Therapy: Often prescribed as part of a treatment plan for H. pylori infections to ensure fast relief and recovery.

How to Use Ulcertret-20 Capsules

For the best results, take one capsule daily, preferably in the morning at least 30 minutes before a meal. Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the capsule, as it contains enteric-coated pellets designed to pass through the stomach and release medicine in the intestines.

If you are looking for fast relief, note that while some people feel better within a day, it may take 2-4 days of consistent use for the medicine to reach its full effect.

Precautions and Safety

• Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: "Can a pregnant woman take Ulcertret?" This is a common question. You should only use Omeprazole during pregnancy if specifically advised by your doctor. Contact a GoMed pharmacist for professional guidance.
• Medical Consultation: Consult a healthcare provider before long-term use, especially if you have liver problems or are taking medications like clopidogrel.
• Common Side Effects: These may include mild headache, stomach gas, or nausea. Most symptoms are temporary and resolve quickly.

Store the medicine in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
