About Ilahil 10mg Tablet

Ilahil 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.
