FAQs

Eiref-C 40/3 Cap is used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), indigestion, duodenal ulcers, erosive oesophagitis (acid-related damage to the lining of the oesophagus), infections caused by Helicobacter pylori when given along with an antibiotic, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.

Eiref-C 40/3 Cap contains Pantoprazole and Cinitapride. Pantoprazole works by blocking the action of an enzyme called the gastric proton pump, which is responsible for the production of stomach acid. Cinitapride increases the pressure of the inferior oesophageal sphincter, thereby preventing the back-flow of food and acid from the stomach into the mouth. Together, Eiref-C 40/3 Cap helps in preventing acid reflux, thereby providing relief from acidity and heartburn.

Diarrhoea might be a side-effect of Eiref-C 40/3 Cap . Drink enough fluids and eat non-spicy food if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you experience severe diarrhoea, consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.

Avoid lying down immediately after meals to prevent symptoms of acid reflux. After having a meal, try 10-15 minutes of brisk walking, especially after dinner. Raise the head of the bed 10-20 cm by putting a pillow so that the head and chest are above the waist. This helps prevent acid reflux.

Eiref-C 40/3 Cap contains pantoprazole, which might increase the risk of bone fracture in the hip, spine, or wrist due to the decreased magnesium level in bones. This mainly occurs in people taking higher doses of Eiref-C 40/3 Cap for longer durations. Inform your doctor before taking Eiref-C 40/3 Cap if you have osteoporosis or if you are taking corticosteroids.

Dry mouth could be a side effect of Eiref-C 40/3 Cap . Limiting caffeine intake, avoiding smoking and mouthwashes containing alcohol, drinking water regularly, and chewing sugar-free gum/candy might help stimulate saliva and thereby prevent dry mouth.

Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take Eiref-C 40/3 Cap for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. If you face any difficulty while taking it, stop using it and consult the doctor.

No, Eiref-C 40/3 Cap is not an antibiotic medication. It is an antacid medication.

Yes, it can be taken on an empty stomach, preferably 30-60 minutes before food.

Eiref-C 40/3 Cap contains Cinitapride (gastroprokinetic agent) and Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor).
