What is ULSAKIT?
ULSAKIT is a specialized triple-therapy medication kit (often called an ulcer kit) registered in Nigeria for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. It is specifically formulated to treat gastric and duodenal ulcers by combining a potent acid reducer with two effective antibiotics.
This kit provides a standardized 7-day treatment course. Instead of buying separate medications, ULSAKIT comes in a co-pack of 7 blisters, each containing the precise morning and evening doses required for the day.
Active Ingredients & How They Work
Each ULSAKIT blister contains three core medications that work together to provide relief and healing:
- Omeprazole BP (20mg): A proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production, allowing the ulcer to heal.
- Tinidazole BP (500mg): A nitroimidazole antimicrobial agent that helps eliminate the bacterial infection.
- Clarithromycin USP (250mg): A macrolide antibiotic that targets and kills H. pylori bacteria.
ULSAKIT Dosage & Administration
For the treatment to be effective, it is essential to follow the full 7-day course. Missing doses can lead to antibiotic resistance.
- Standard Regimen: Take one set of three capsules (1 Omeprazole + 1 Tinidazole + 1 Clarithromycin) in the morning and another set in the evening, approximately 12 hours apart.
- It is usually recommended to take the medication before or with a meal as directed by your doctor.
- Duration: Finish all 7 blisters in the pack.

ULSAKIT Side Effects & Safety
While highly effective, some users may experience side effects such as a metallic taste in the mouth, nausea, or stomach discomfort.

Always consult a GoMed pharmacist or your doctor if you have concerns about side effects or drug interactions. Note that ULSAKIT is a prescription-only medicine.
