About MOTIZA 50MG TABLET

MOTIZA 50MG TABLET is a prescription medicine used to treat symptoms of indigestion, chronic gastritis, and poor gastrointestinal motility. Living with ongoing indigestion or stomach discomfort can affect your daily life, and this medicine helps relieve bloating, early fullness after eating, upper abdominal pain, and heartburn by improving the movement of food through your stomach.

For the best results, take MOTIZA 50MG TABLET exactly as prescribed by your doctor, preferably on an empty stomach about one hour before meals. Eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding fatty or spicy foods may also help improve your symptoms.

While using MOTIZA 50MG TABLET, you may experience mild side effects such as diarrhoea, headache, or mild stomach pain. These are usually temporary. However, if you develop yellowing of the skin or eyes, signs of a severe allergic reaction, or other severe symptoms, stop taking the medicine and seek emergency medical attention immediately. 

Before starting treatment, tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems. Do not use this medicine if you have active stomach or intestinal bleeding, a bowel obstruction, or a perforation in your digestive tract.

Tell your doctor about all medicines you are taking, as some may reduce the effectiveness of MOTIZA 50MG TABLET. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, an older adult, or consume alcohol or smoke regularly, discuss this with your doctor before starting treatment.

Uses of MOTIZA 50MG TABLET

MOTIZA 50MG TABLET is commonly used to improve stomach emptying and relieve symptoms caused by slow digestion and upper gastrointestinal discomfort.

  • Non-ulcer dyspepsia: MOTIZA 50MG TABLET helps relieve symptoms like bloating, early fullness, and upper abdominal discomfort that occur without an obvious ulcer.
  • Chronic gastritis: MOTIZA 50MG TABLET reduces stomach irritation and inflammation by improving the flow of food, preventing acid backup and discomfort.
  • Gastrointestinal motility disorders: MOTIZA 50MG TABLET stimulates the muscles of the stomach and intestines, helping to accelerate slow digestion and relieve chronic bloating.

Key Benefits

MOTIZA 50MG TABLET offers several benefits by improving stomach motility and relieving symptoms of indigestion and digestive discomfort.

  • Improves digestion: MOTIZA 50MG TABLET helps food move through the stomach more efficiently, reducing bloating, early fullness, and the heavy feeling after meals.
  • Relieves digestive discomfort: By improving stomach emptying, MOTIZA 50MG TABLET helps reduce symptoms such as heartburn, nausea, and upper abdominal discomfort, supporting greater comfort in daily activities.

Directions for Use

  • MOTIZA 50MG TABLET is taken before meals or as advised by your doctor.

How MOTIZA 50MG TABLET Works

MOTIZA 50MG TABLET contains itopride hydrochloride. To understand how MOTIZA 50MG TABLET works, it is helpful to look at how your gut coordinates movement. This medicine works by targeting specific chemical messengers in your digestive tract. It blocks dopamine receptors, which normally slow down stomach contractions, and prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine, a natural chemical that stimulates gut muscle movement. By keeping acetylcholine levels active, MOTIZA 50MG TABLET increases the strength and frequency of contractions in your stomach and upper intestines. This dual action speeds up gastric emptying—the process of food moving from your stomach into your intestines—thereby preventing acid reflux, nausea, and the sensation of being overly full.
