LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S

How LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S Works

• LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S works by targeting specific histamine H2 receptors located on the stomach lining. These receptors are primarily responsible for stimulating the production of stomach acid. By selectively blocking these H2 receptors, LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S effectively reduces the amount of acid secreted into the stomach.
• In addition to reducing acid production, LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S also promotes the secretion of mucin within the stomach. Mucin is a protective substance that forms a barrier, shielding the stomach lining from the corrosive effects of acid. This dual action – reducing acid and increasing protection – is key to LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S's effectiveness.
• By decreasing acid production and bolstering the stomach's protective barrier, LAFAXID 10MG TABLET 10'S facilitates the healing of ulcers in both the stomach and small intestine. This creates an environment conducive to tissue repair and reduces further damage. Moreover, the medication provides relief from common symptoms associated with excess stomach acid, such as heartburn and acid-related indigestion, improving overall patient comfort and well-being.
