Benefits of Eupep Syrup

Treatment of Peptic ulcer disease
Eupep Syrup is used to treat peptic ulcers. It reduces the amount of acid your stomach makes which prevents further damage to the ulcer as it heals naturally. You may be given other medicines depending on what caused the ulcer. You need to keep taking the medicine as it is prescribed for it to be effective, even if the symptoms seem to disappear. It may also be prescribed to prevent ulcers from forming by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach.

Treatment of Irritable bowel syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome is a chronic inflammatory disease of the large intestine (colon) that usually needs long-term management. This can lead to bleeding, frequent diarrhea, bloating, flatulence, cramps and stomach pain. Eupep Syrup relaxes the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine) and relieves these symptoms effectively. Usually, it is used along with other medicines for the management of your condition. Continue taking it for as long as the doctor may advise you to. You need to take this medicine regularly to get the most out of it. Take a fiber-rich diet, avoid oily or spicy food and drink plenty of fluids while taking it to make sure you stay hydrated.

Pain relief
Eupep Syrup reduces secretions in the stomach such as acid secretions and improves movement of muscles of the stomach and gut (intestine). This effectively relieves pain, sudden muscle spasms or contractions in the stomach and intestine, thereby relaxing the muscles and improving movement of food. It helps to treat abdominal pain (or stomach pain) as well as cramps, bloating and discomfort. Take it as it is prescribed to get the most benefit. Eventually, it will help you to go about your daily activities more easily and have a better, more active, quality of life.
