Acera-20 Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called proton pump inhibitors, which are used to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is commonly prescribed to treat duodenal ulcers (sores in the upper part of the small intestine), gastro-oesophageal reflux disease or GERD (when stomach acid flows back into the food pipe), heartburn (a burning feeling in the chest caused by acid), and erosive oesophagitis (damage to the lining of the food pipe due to acid). It is also used to treat infections caused by a stomach bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (along with antibiotics), and a rare condition called Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (when the stomach makes too much acid).
Acera-20 Capsule contains Rabeprazole, which works by blocking the acid-producing pumps in the stomach. By reducing acid levels, it helps relieve symptoms, allows ulcers and damaged areas to heal, and prevents new ulcers from forming.
Your doctor will decide the correct dose and duration depending on your condition, so it’s essential to follow their instructions carefully. Some people may experience side effects while taking Acera-20 Capsule . Common ones include headache, dizziness, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, gas (bloating), weakness, or a runny nose. These are usually mild and go away on their own. However, if any of these symptoms continue or become bothersome, you should contact your doctor.
Before taking Acera-20 Capsule , inform your doctor if you have any liver problems or a stomach tumour. Long-term use may lower magnesium and vitamin B12 levels, and slightly increase the risk of bone fractures. Avoid alcohol, as it can increase stomach acid and side effects like drowsiness. Additionally, this medication may cause drowsiness or dizziness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you feel fully alert. Acera-20 Capsule is not recommended for children, and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using it.
