Description
Itopid 50 mg Tablet, manufactured by ACME Laboratories Ltd., contains Itopride Hydrochloride, a gastroprokinetic agent used to treat various gastrointestinal disorders. Itopride functions through a dual mechanism: as a dopamine D₂ receptor antagonist and an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. This combination increases acetylcholine levels, enhancing gastric motility, accelerating gastric emptying, and improving gastro-duodenal coordination. Itopid is commonly prescribed for conditions such as chronic gastritis, functional dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting, and delayed gastric emptying. The typical dosage is 50 mg taken orally three times daily before meals. Patients should be monitored for potential side effects, including diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain, and, in rare cases, gynecomastia. Itopid is contraindicated in individuals with gastrointestinal bleeding, mechanical obstruction, or perforation. Caution is advised when administering to pregnant or breastfeeding women, and the safety in children under 18 years has not been established. As with any medication, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional before starting treatment to ensure it is appropriate for your specific medical condition.
