ILADIF 10MG TABLET belongs to the class of antiulcer medications called 'proton pump inhibitors used to treat peptic ulcers, duodenal ulcers, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (reflux of gastric contents into the oesophagus) and dyspepsia. Gastric reflux or hyperacidity occurs when our stomach produces a large amount of digestive acid, irritating the sphincter located at the stomach's tip. Thus, a damaged sphincter leads to the backflow of digestive acid into the food pipe, causing heartburn and ulcer.

ILADIF 10MG TABLET contains 'Ilaprazole', which works by blocking the action of the enzyme known as the gastric proton pump responsible for the production of acid. This reduces the amount of acid produced, heals the ulcers and prevents the formation of new ulcers. Thus, ILADIF 10MG TABLET prevents symptoms of hyperacidity which includes heartburn and indigestion.

ILADIF 10MG TABLET should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as headache, dizziness, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, flatulence (wind), weakness, flu-like symptoms, back pain, aches, infection, difficulty sleeping, cough, sore throat and runny nose. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Inform your doctor before taking ILADIF 10MG TABLET if you have a stomach tumour, liver disease or if you are due to have Chromogranin A blood test. In long-term treatment, ILADIF 10MG TABLET may cause low magnesium and vitamin B12 levels and increase the risk of bone fractures. Do not take ILADIF 10MG TABLET if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. ILADIF 10MG TABLET may cause dizziness and sleepiness, so drive only if you are alert. ILADIF 10MG TABLET should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol during the treatment as ILADIF 10MG TABLET can increase drowsiness and stomach acid production. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.

ILADIF 10MG TABLET belongs to a group of antiulcer medicines called proton pump inhibitors. ILADIF 10MG TABLET is used to treat duodenal ulcers, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (reflux of gastric contents into the oesophagus), heartburn and erosive oesophagitis (acid-related damage to the lining of the oesophagus). ILADIF 10MG TABLET works by blocking the action of the enzyme known as the gastric proton pump responsible for the production of acid. This reduces the amount of acid produced, heals the ulcers and prevents the formation of new ulcers.
