ACTAPRO OD 10 Tablets

Actapro OD

Actapro OD belongs to the ‘gastroprokinetics’ class of medicines. It’s most commonly used to treat functional dyspepsia (indigestion). When your upper digestive tract exhibits signs of pain, irritation, or early or extended fullness for a month or longer, you have functional dyspepsia (FD). This scenario can be long-term and have a negative impact on one’s quality of life. Medication, lifestyle changes, and treatment are all options for reducing the discomfort produced by functional dyspepsia.

Actapro OD contains ‘Acotiamide,’ a substance that improves gastrointestinal peristalsis movement by increasing the level of a chemical (acetylcholine). As a result, it enhances food flow throughout the gastrointestinal system by increasing gut motility, accelerating gastric emptying time, and increasing intestine motility.

Follow your doctor’s instructions for taking Actapro OD. Depending on your medical conditions, you should take Actapro OD for as long as your doctor has given it. Headaches, diarrhea, constipation, rashes, and dizziness are all possible side effects. The majority of Actapro OD’s negative effects do not require medical treatment and fade away with time. Please visit your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Please inform your doctor if you are allergic to Actapro OD or any other medications. Before taking Actapro OD, tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. When it comes to rashes and itching, Actapro OD should be avoided. Because Actapro OD causes drowsiness and dizziness, it is not recommended that you drive unless you are fully awake. Actapro OD’s interaction with alcohol is unknown. Before consuming, it’s a good idea to consult your doctor.

Actapro OD is used to treat functional dyspepsia (indigestion)

Medicinal Advantages

Actapro OD is most commonly used to treat functional dyspepsia (indigestion). Actapro OD is a novel gastroprokinetics (food movement from mouth to stomach and intestines) drug intended to treat gastrointestinal symptoms such heartburn, nausea, and vomiting. It aids in the relief of symptoms such as bloating after a meal, upper abdominal pain/discomfort, and early satiety (feeling full after eating only a little food). Actapro OD promotes gastrointestinal peristalsis movement by increasing the level of a chemical (acetylcholine) concentration. As a result, it enhances food flow throughout the gastrointestinal system by increasing gut motility, accelerating gastric emptying time, and increasing intestine motility.
