About Ddr 30 Capsule 10

DDR 30 Capsule is used in the management of heartburn associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and for the healing of erosive oesophagitis (inflammation and damage to the oesophagus from acid reflux). It is a proton pump inhibitor containing dexlansoprazole.

Dexlansoprazole works by blocking the acid-producing pumps in the stomach lining, cutting down the amount of acid the stomach produces, which relieves symptoms and allows irritated tissue in the oesophagus to heal.

Take this capsule once daily, with or without food, exactly as your doctor prescribes, and continue for the duration advised even if your symptoms improve early.

Long-term use can affect magnesium and vitamin B12 levels, so tell your doctor if you notice unusual tiredness, muscle cramps or tingling. Tell your doctor if you have liver disease before starting this medicine.
