About Revanex Tablet

Revanex Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called Potassium competitive acid blockers used to treat gastric and duodenal ulcers, functional dyspepsia, GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease), and gastritis. The stomach is usually protected from acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, due to excess acid production, the mucous layer gets eroded, which leads to acidity-related conditions.
 
Revanex Tablet contains Revaprazan as an active ingredient, which belongs to Potassium competitive acid blockers/ reversible proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It works by lowering the amount of acid produced in the stomach. Thereby, it provides relief from acidity-related conditions like gastric and duodenal ulcers, functional dyspepsia, GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease), and gastritis. 
 
In some cases, Revanex Tablet may cause side effects such as diarrhoea, nausea, headache, constipation, and runny nose. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
 
Let the doctor know if you are allergic to any components in Revanex Tablet. Consult the doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep the doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Peptic ulcers: An ulcer is a sore that develops on the lining of the stomach, oesophagus or small intestine due to erosion of the protective stomach lining. A gastric ulcer is an ulcer of the stomach lining, whereas a duodenal ulcer is an ulcer on the duodenal lining. Symptoms include nausea, changes in appetite, bloody or dark stools, unexplained weight loss, vomiting, and indigestion.

GERD: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms include heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing.

Functional dyspepsia: It is the feeling of prolonged indigestion without a clear cause. This condition is characterised by a feeling of fullness during or after a meal and a burning sensation in the abdomen.

Gastritis: It is the inflammation of the stomach lining. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, and upper stomach pain.
