Information - Losec
Losec tablets are for the short-term symptomatic relief of reflux-like symptoms. These symptoms may include a burning feeling rising up from the stomach of chest (heartburn), or acid regurgitation. Losec is used for the treatment of stomach ulcers, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (A rare condition with very high stomach acid). It is also prescribed for NSAID-associated (e.g. aspirin) ulceration, and during general anaesthesia to prevent acid aspiration. This medicine is known as a proton pump inhibitor which blocks excess stomach acid production via a unique mechanism ( H+,K+-ATPase). By controlling the production of excess acid it allows the eroded lining of the stomach or oesophagus to heal due to the agent's long duration of action and high potency.
Use
Take 2 tablets once daily until symptoms improve, then reduce the dose to 1 tablet once daily. If symptoms returns, the dose may be increased to 2 tablets once daily. Use the lowest dose that controls your symptoms. Use should not be prolonged except on medical advice
