About Moza MPS Tablet

Moza MPS Tablet belongs to a class of medication called gastrointestinal agents used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal gas and indigestion. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). Irritable bowel syndrome is a common disease that affects the large intestine. IBS is also known as spastic colon, irritable colon, spastic colitis, and mucous colitis. An irritable bowel syndrome is a group of intestinal symptoms that occur together.

Moza MPS Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely: Mosapride (gastroprokinetic agent) and Methylpolysiloxane (antifoaming agent). Mosapride increases the movement of the food pipe (oesophagus), small intestine and stomach, thereby enhancing bowel movement, and the digestive tract gets emptied from the food in a shorter time. Thereby, it helps in preventing acid reflux and provides relief from hyperacidity and heartburn. Methylpolysiloxane is an antifoaming agent that combines smaller gas bubbles that may get trapped among stomach contents into larger bubbles that are easily expelled by passing wind or burping.  Thereby, it helps in releasing gas.

Take Moza MPS Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Moza MPS Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): The stomach is usually protected from the acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets irritated or eroded, which leads to complications like GERD, hyperacidity, peptic ulcers, and heartburn. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (esophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms include heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS): It is a common disease that affects the large intestine. IBS is also known as spastic colon, irritable colon, spastic colitis, and mucous colitis. An irritable bowel syndrome is a group of intestinal symptoms that occur together. The exact cause is unknown, but common causes of IBS are acidity, stress, carbonated foods and beverages, irregular hormone levels, certain food, and medications. Symptoms include abdominal pain, cramps, bloating, gas, constipation, and/or diarrhea.
