Apilok-O Tab 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.
Apilok-O Tab 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, Apilok-O Tab 10'S prevents the sensation of nausea and vomiting caused due to conditions like surgery, cancer chemotherapy, pregnancy or motion sickness.

Apilok-O Tab 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. Apilok-O Tab 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, Apilok-O Tab 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. When serotonin level increases in the blood, it stimulates the CTZ receptor (chemoreceptor trigger zone) located in the brain responsible for controlling nausea and vomiting. Apilok-O Tab 10'S acts by inhibiting the release of this serotonin, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD): A gastrointestinal problem occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the oesophagus (food pipe). This acid reflux (backflow) irritates the food pipe that causes heartburn.
Heartburn: The post effect of acid reflux with a burning-like feeling rises from the stomach towards the neck.
Nausea/Vomiting: Nausea is an uneasy feeling in the stomach that may come and go in waves in which a person feels a strong urge to vomit. It happens before vomiting. While vomiting is a natural response of the body, a person wants to expel stomach contents from the mouth forcefully. It can be triggered by taste, anxiety, smell, pain or irritation to the stomach.
