Medical Description

Aciloc RD tablets are used to treat acid reflux disease, also known as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It relieves symptoms such as heartburn, chest pain, discomfort, and irritation associated with acid reflux. Aciloc RD contains omeprazole and domperidone as its active ingredients. Omeprazole reduces acid secretion in the stomach, while domperidone prevents the outflow of the stomach contents into the food pipe.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition where acid from the stomach flows back up to the food pipe along with the stomach's contents. This condition can lead to heartburn, chest pain, burning pain, and regurgitation of food or sour liquid due to stomach irritation. It may also result in stomach or intestinal ulcers due to excess acid present in the lining of the stomach or intestine.

For best results, take Aciloc RD tablets at least 30 minutes before meals. Before using this tablet, inform your doctor about your health conditions and medical history. It is important to inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Omez DSR capsuleOmee D capsule and Gaspaz capsule are some other medicines with omeprazole and domperidone as their active ingredients.

While using Aciloc RD tablets, it is advised to avoid consuming spicy and oily food. You should eat at least 3 hours before going to bed and not eat anything at bedtime. Engaging in exercise and other activities is also recommended. Smoking and drinking alcohol should be avoided as they may worsen the condition.
