About Moza Plus Capsule

Moza Plus Capsule belongs to a class of medication called gastrointestinal agents used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcers. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the inner lining of the intestine and stomach.

Moza Plus Capsule is a combination of two drugs, namely: Mosapride (gastroprokinetic agent) and Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor). Mosapride increases the movement of the food pipe (oesophagus), small intestine and stomach.  It enhances bowel movement and empties the digestive tract from food in a shorter time. Thereby, it helps in preventing acid reflux and provides relief from hyperacidity and heartburn. Pantoprazole works by blocking the action of proton pumps that are involved in producing stomach acid. Thereby, it reduces the amount of acid produced by the stomach and prevents excess acid from flowing back into the food pipe.

Take Moza Plus Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Moza Plus Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, stomach pain or dry mouth. Most of these side effects of Moza Plus Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Moza Plus Capsule or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Moza Plus Capsule is not recommended for children below 12 years of age. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult a doctor before taking Moza Plus Capsule .  Moza Plus Capsule should be used with caution in elderly patients due to the increased risk of adverse effects. Drive only if you are alert as Moza Plus Capsule may cause dizziness or vision disturbances. Avoid alcohol consumption as it may increase the production of stomach acid and worsen the symptoms.

Uses of Moza Plus Capsule

Moza Plus Capsule is used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcers. The detailed uses of Moza Plus Capsule are as follows:

  • Treats Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Moza Plus Capsule helps treat GERD by reducing stomach acid and improving the movement of the food pipe (oesophagus). This promotes faster emptying of food and helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn, acid reflux, and chest discomfort.
  • Treats Peptic Ulcers: Moza Plus Capsule aids in the healing of ulcers in the stomach (gastric ulcer) and the duodenum (duodenal ulcer) by reducing the production of excess stomach acid.

Key Benefits

Moza Plus Capsule contains Mosapride and Pantoprazole. Mosapride is a gastroprokinetic agent that increases the movement of the food pipe (oesophagus), small intestine and stomach. Thereby, it helps in preventing acid reflux and provides relief from hyperacidity and heartburn. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that blocks the action of proton pumps that are involved in producing stomach acid. Thereby, it reduces the amount of acid produced by the stomach and prevents excess acid from flowing back into the food pipe.
