Whats That
About Lokit-20 Capsule
Lokit-20 Capsule belongs to the class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer (stomach or duodenal ulcer), and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (overproduction of acid due to a pancreatic tumour). Normally, a thick layer of mucous protects the stomach against its own acid secretion. But, in the long run, it gets eroded by excessive stomach acid production, leading to complications like GERD, peptic ulcer, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
Lokit-20 Capsule contains omeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor), which helps reduce stomach acid by blocking the actions of an enzyme called H+/K+ ATPase (gastric proton pump). This proton pump lies in the stomach wall cells and is responsible for releasing gastric acid. Lokit-20 Capsule prevents the release of stomach acid and relieves symptoms such as food pipe lining inflammation (esophagitis), acid reflux, or heartburn.
Your doctor will decide the dose and duration of Lokit-20 Capsule based on your medical condition. Lokit-20 Capsule may cause common side effects like stomach pain, gas formation (flatulence), nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and headache. These side effects are temporary and may resolve on their own. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Before taking Lokit-20 Capsule , inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or to other proton pump inhibitors. Also, tell your doctor if you have stomach or intestinal cancer, severe liver problems, difficulty swallowing, bloody or black stools, unexplained weight loss, or will have an endoscopy in the future. Lokit-20 Capsule should not be given to patients suffering from Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea. Avoid prolonged use of Lokit-20 Capsule , as it may increase the risk of osteoporosis-related fractures of the hip, wrist, or spine due to loss of magnesium. Consult your doctor before taking Lokit-20 Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Lokit-20 Capsule prevents the release of stomach acid and relieves symptoms such as food pipe lining inflammation (esophagitis), acid reflux, or heartburn.
Prolonged intake of Lokit-20 Capsule may lead to atrophic gastritis (inflammation of stomach cells), vitamin B12 deficiency, and weakening of bones or osteoporosis (loss of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D). Your doctor may prescribe calcium, vitamin D, or haemoglobin-enhancing medications to cope with long-term side effects.
No. Lokit-20 Capsule is not prescribed for stomach cancer. Lokit-20 Capsule is only indicated for the treatment of hyperacidity, acid reflux symptoms (GERD), heartburn and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
No. Gas and acidity are two different common discomforts. Acidity is caused when improper functioning of the valve (sphincter) is located at the junction of the stomach and food pipe. As a result, stomach acid backflows and enters the upper part of the food pipe, causing heartburn. On the other hand, gas is the result of the digestion of food and drinks, eliminating gases like carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, methane, etc., from the body.
