About Magic-HP Kit

Magic-HP Kit is used in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease caused by infection with a common type of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Peptic ulcers are sores (small, shallow wounds) that develop on the intestine and stomach's inner lining.

Magic-HP Kit is a combination of three drugs, namely: Pantoprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin. Amoxicillin is bactericidal (kills bacteria) that works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering (protective cell wall) necessary for their survival, thereby preventing the growth of bacteria. Clarithromycin is a bacteriostatic antibiotic i.e., it stops the growth of bacteria but necessarily does not kill them. It works by inhibiting the protein synthesis process required for the growth of the bacterial cell. As a result, bacterial cells are not able to reproduce and grow. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that works by blocking the action of an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for the production of acid in the stomach. Thereby reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. Altogether, Magic-HP Kit helps in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease.

You are advised to take Magic-HP Kit for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach pain, taste change, and headache. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will 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 Magic-HP Kit if you have a history of liver disease, kidney disease, or myasthenia gravis (neuromuscular disease). Do not take Magic-HP Kit if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by the doctor. Magic-HP Kit causes drowsiness, so drive only if you are alert. Magic-HP Kit should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Magic-HP Kit as it could lead to increased drowsiness and can elevate the production of stomach acid. Keep your doctor informed about all the medicines and your health condition to rule out any side effects.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Peptic ulcers: Peptic ulcers are sores (small, shallow wounds) that develop on the stomach and intestine lining due to erosion of the stomach's protective lining. Symptoms include nausea, changes in appetite, bloody or dark stools, unexplained weight loss, vomiting, and indigestion-like pain. The indigestion-like pain can be brief or may last for hours, one may experience more severe pain when the stomach is empty or right after eating. If the ulcer is untreated, then it may lead to several complications such as internal bleeding, peritonitis (ulcer bores a hole through the wall of the stomach or small intestine), and it may also cause pyloric stenosis (chronic inflammation in the lining of the stomach or duodenum). Taking prescribed medicines like Magic-HP Kit helps to relieve symptoms associated with peptic ulcer disease.

FAQs

Magic-HP Kit is used in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease caused by infection with a common type of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). It works by inhibiting the action of gastric proton pump and preventing the growth of micro-organisms.
Speak to your doctor if you do not feel better even after taking Magic-HP Kit for 14 days. Do not take Magic-HP Kit for longer durations unless prescribed by the doctor.
Magic-HP Kit may cause dizziness. Drive only if you are alert and omit driving and operating machinery if you feel dizzy after taking Magic-HP Kit.
Avoid or limit the consumption of alcohol while on Magic-HP Kit as it may lead to increased dizziness. Alcohol intake may also lead to excess production of stomach acid, thereby increasing acidity and heartburn.
Diarrhoea might be a side-effect of Magic-HP Kit. Drink enough fluids and eat fibre rich food if you experience diarrhoea after taking Magic-HP Kit. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you experience excess diarrhoea, consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.
Magic-HP Kit contains pantoprazole, which may increase the risk of bone fracture in the hip, spine, or wrist. Recent clinical studies indicated that pantoprazole may affect the absorption of certain nutrients and minerals required for maintaining good bone health, leading to fractures. This mainly occurs in people taking higher doses of Magic-HP Kit for longer durations. Inform your doctor before taking Magic-HP Kit if you have osteoporosis or if you are already taking corticosteroids.
Dry mouth could be a side effect of Magic-HP Kit. Limiting caffeine intake, avoiding smoking, drinking enough water, and chewing sugar-free gum or candy might help stimulate saliva and thereby prevent dryness of the mouth.
