This comprehensive therapy provides synergistic action against H.pylori infection while promoting ulcer healing and preventing recurrence through multiple mechanisms.

Uses

Elicorid Tablet is primarily used for treating peptic ulcers in the stomach and duodenum, while effectively eliminating H.pylori bacterial infection. It provides complete therapy for both active ulcer treatment and prevention of recurrence through bacterial eradication. The medication is particularly effective for patients with confirmed H.pylori infection and associated gastric conditions.

Benefits

• Effectively eradicates H.pylori infection
• Promotes rapid ulcer healing
• Prevents ulcer recurrence
• Reduces stomach acid production
• Provides complete triple therapy in one formulation
• Treats both symptoms and underlying cause
• Offers convenient dosing schedule
• Demonstrates high cure rates

How It Works

Elicorid Tablet works through a triple-action mechanism: Clarithromycin and amoxicillin work synergistically to eliminate H.pylori infection, while rabeprazole reduces stomach acid production by inhibiting the proton pump. This comprehensive approach enables effective ulcer healing by addressing both the infectious cause and the acidic environment that prevents healing.

Duration of Action

The medication begins acid suppression within 1 hour of administration. Antimicrobial effects start working within 2-3 hours. Complete H.pylori eradication typically requires 10-14 days of consistent therapy. Ulcer healing may be observed within 4-8 weeks, with sustained acid suppression throughout treatment.

Dosage

Side Effects

Serious but rare side effects may include severe diarrhea (C. difficile infection), liver problems, or allergic reactions.

Warning

Discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe diarrhea, rash, or signs of allergic reaction. Not recommended for patients with myasthenia gravis, severe liver disorders, or phenylketonuria. Monitor for signs of liver problems (yellowing of skin/eyes, dark urine, unusual fatigue).
