Deltone Capsule 10

Deltone Capsule is prescribed for managing various health conditions, including:

• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): This is a common condition where the stomach is in discomfort due to stomach acid flowing back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach.

• Erosive esophagitis: This happens when the lining of the esophagus - the tube that carries food from your mouth to your stomach - becomes inflamed and ulcers form due to prolonged exposure to stomach acid.

• Peptic ulcer disease: Deltone Capsule help manage open sores that develop on the inside lining of your stomach and the upper portion of your small intestine.

• 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.
