Asacus Sachet 1gm contains mesalazine (1 g), which works on the body as follows:

• Anti-inflammatory action: Mesalazine reduces inflammation in the intestinal tract by blocking specific inflammatory substances in the body, particularly prostaglandins and leukotrienes, which contribute to bowel inflammation.

• Localised effect: It works directly within the gut with minimal absorption into the bloodstream, concentrating its therapeutic effects at the site of inflammation rather than throughout the entire body.

• Tissue healing: By reducing swelling, irritation, and ulceration in the bowel lining, mesalazine helps promote the healing of damaged intestinal tissue.

• Symptom control: The medicine begins working immediately upon administration, though achieving full control of symptoms may require several weeks of consistent treatment.

• Store Asacus Sachet 1gm below 25°C in a dry place.

• Keep the sachets in their original packaging to protect them from moisture and sunlight.

• Ensure the medicine is stored away from children's reach.

• Do not store in bathroom cabinets where humidity levels change frequently.

• Dispose of expired sachets according to local guidelines.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the package.

• Anti-inflammatory foods: Include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (like fatty fish and flaxseeds) in your diet, as they may help reduce inflammation in the bowel and complement the effects of mesalazine in managing ulcerative colitis.

• Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support kidney function and help prevent potential complications while taking Asacus Sachet 1gm for your inflammatory bowel condition.
