SUCRALPET-0

• Sucralfate is an anti-ulcer agent that is theorized to react with stomach acids to form a protective barrier at ulcer sites. This barrier is resistant to the common digestive agents in the stomach.
• Oxetacaine is a potent local anesthetic. It is administered orally for the relief of pain associated with peptic ulcer disease or esophagitis.

Composition:

• Each 10 ml contains Sucralfate IP 1000mg, Oxetacaine IP 20mg & Flavoured Syrup Base q.s,

Pharmacodynamics:

• Sucralfate works by creating a coating or barrier over the ulcer, protecting it from stomach acids and allowing it to heal.
