About Rebagen Tablet 10's

Rebagen Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medicines called anti-ulcers primarily used for mucosal protection, healing of the peptic ulcer, Gastritis, recurrent oral aphthae (stomatitis), and Behcet's disease. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the inner lining of the intestine and stomach. Gastritis is a sudden, severe inflammation of the protective lining of the stomach caused by H. pylori infection, injury, regular use of pain pills called NSAIDs, and too much alcohol. Stomatitis is the most common type of inflammatory efflorescence of the oral mucosa. Behcet's disease: is a rare disorder that causes blood vessel inflammation throughout your body.

Rebagen Tablet 10's contains 'Rebamipide,' which promotes the synthesis of prostaglandin, a chemical messenger that aids in the healing of ulcers. It also aids in the regeneration of damaged tissue by promoting protein expression, stimulating cell development, and improving ulcer healing.

Uses of Rebagen Tablet 10's

Peptic ulcer, Gastritis, Recurrent oral aphthae (stomatitis), and Behcet's disease.

Medicinal Benefits

Rebagen Tablet 10's contains ‘Rebamipide’ (a mucosal protective agent) primarily used to treat Peptic ulcer, Gastritis, Recurrent oral aphthae (stomatitis), and Behcet's disease. It works by decreasing oxygen-free radicals, increasing blood flow, and producing protective prostaglandins (a chemical messenger) in ulcer mucosa, which accelerates the healing process. Also, it helps in the replacement of lost tissue by increasing the expression of a protein that stimulates cell growth (epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptors) and improves ulcer healing. Rebagen Tablet 10's can also be taken while taking NSAIDs (anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs) to lower the chance of developing stomach ulcers.
