About Anset-OR Tablet 10's

Anset-OR Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medications called ‘gastrointestinal agent’ and ' anti-emetics'. It is primarily used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. GERD is a condition in which the valve (sphincter) located at the uppermost part of the stomach gets irritated and damaged due to excessive stomach acid production. As a result, stomach acid enters the food pipe, leading to stomach upset and heartburn. Heartburn is the post-effect of acid reflux with a burning-like feeling that rises from the stomach towards the neck. Nausea is an uneasy feeling in which a person feels an urge to vomit, while vomiting is the natural response to the body to discharge the stomach contents forcefully.

Anset-OR Tablet 10's is a combination of two medicines: Ranitidine (antacid) and ondansetron (antiemetics). Ranitidine, which is an H2 blocker (antacid) which reduces the amount of acid in the stomach and helps relieve acid-related heartburn and indigestion. On the other hand, 'Ondansetron' works by blocking serotonin's action, a natural substance that may cause nausea and vomiting. As a result, Anset-OR Tablet 10's prevents the sensation of nausea and vomiting caused due to conditions like surgery, cancer chemotherapy, pregnancy or motion sickness.

Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Acid reflux, Heartburn, Nausea, Vomiting.

Medicinal Benefits

Anset-OR Tablet 10's is a combination of two medicines: Ranitidine (antacid), and ondansetron (antiemetics).  It is primarily used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. Anset-OR Tablet 10's contains Ranitidine which helps reduce the excess amount of stomach acid. In turn, it prevents the formation of an ulcer in the stomach (peptic ulcer) or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with or without an ulcer. On the other hand, Anset-OR Tablet 10's is used to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, pregnancy and motion sickness in adults and children above four years of age.

Anset-OR Tablet 10's acts by inhibiting the release of this serotonin, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Avoid intake of acid or heartburn triggering foods or drinks like onions, peppermint, chocolate, caffeinated beverages, citrus fruits or juices, tomatoes and high-fat and spicy foods.

  • A person should take a healthy diet that includes lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, skinless poultry, nuts, fish, whole grains, plant-based oils and low-fat dairy products will help to keep a person in good health and avoid chances of nausea and vomiting.
  • One should avoid taking greasy or oily foods as this food triggers nausea and vomit.
