Medicinal Benefits:

Rebagen Tablet 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 can also be taken while taking NSAIDs (anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs) to lower the chance of developing stomach ulcers.
