Deltone Capsule 10

Deltone Capsule is used to treat conditions caused by excess stomach acid. It helps manage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by reducing acid that flows back into the food pipe, easing discomfort. The capsule also supports healing for erosive esophagitis and peptic ulcer disease, promoting healing and reducing pain.

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water.

• Don't chew, open or crush the capsule.

Deltone Capsule is taken orally.

Dexlansoprazole is the active ingredient in Deltone Capsule and it works in your body in certain ways:

• Proton pump inhibitor: Dexlansoprazole works by blocking the hydrogen/potassium adenosine triphosphatase enzyme system, also known as the proton pump, in your gastric parietal cells. These cells are responsible for the final step of acid production in your stomach.

• Reduces stomach acid: By inhibiting this enzyme, dexlansoprazole effectively decreases the amount of acid produced in your stomach. This relieves symptoms and promotes healing of acid-related conditions.

• Deltone Capsule should be stored in a cool, dry place where the temperature does not exceed 25°C.

• Keep it shielded from direct sunlight and away from excessive moisture.

• Ensure the medicine is stored in its original packaging.

• Always keep Deltone Capsule out of the reach of children to avoid accidental ingestion.

• Check the expiry date before use and do not use it beyond that.

• If you're managing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive esophagitis, or peptic ulcer disease with Deltone Capsule, try to avoid spicy, fatty foods which can irritate your stomach lining.

• Consuming smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day instead of three large meals can help manage these conditions.

• Limit your intake of caffeine and alcohol as these can increase stomach acid production and aggravate your condition.

• Avoid lying down or going to bed immediately after eating; wait at least two hours after a meal before sleeping.

• Smoking can worsen stomach acid problems. If you smoke, consider seeking help to quit.

• Regular exercise can aid digestion and reduce stress, which may help alleviate symptoms of GERD and peptic ulcers.
