Finix 20 Capsule 10pcs Price in Bangladesh

Indication

Finix is a medication that decreases the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is used to treat stomach and intestine acid-related diseases such as heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, and some other stomach conditions associated with excessive acid production. Finix is also used to prevent stomach ulcers and acidity caused by long-term painkiller use. It is a proton pump inhibitor, which is a type of medication (PPI). Take this medication one hour before a meal, preferably in the morning. The dose will be determined by your underlying condition as well as how you respond to the medication. Try to take it at the same time every day, as directed by your doctor.

Pharmacology

By blocking the gastric H+/K+-ATPase at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell, Finix 10 reduces gastric acid secretion. Rabeprazole has been referred to as a gastric proton-pump inhibitor since this enzyme is thought to be the acid (proton) pump within the parietal cell.

Pregnancy & Lactation

Finix 20 isn't usually recommended during pregnancy as there's no firm evidence it's safe. if you're pregnant, it's better to try to treat symptoms of acid reflux and heartburn without taking medicine.

The SPC advises avoiding the use of rabeprazole during lactation. levels for both drugs are low, and in addition, a large proportion of any of the drugs ingested by the infant is likely to be destroyed by the acid in the stomach.
