Volstar 20 MG Description

Volstar tablet is used for the treatment and prevention of sores in the lining of the stomach or intestine. It contains vonoprazan as the main ingredient, which lowers the amount of acid the stomach makes.

Vonoprazan is a medication that reduces stomach acid by blocking a specific enzyme in the stomach cells known as the proton pump. This process halts the final step of acid production. Unlike other medications, vonoprazan does not require stomach acid to function and can accumulate in the stomach cells regardless of their activity. It binds to the proton pumps temporarily, allowing it to work effectively.

Swallow this medicine whole with plenty of water. You may take it with or without food. Common side effects of Volstar tablet include diarrhoea, stomach pain, nausea, high blood pressure, and indigestion. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is essential to consult your healthcare provider.
