Benefits of Axamide Capsule
In Treatment of Peptic ulcer disease
Peptic ulcer disease is a condition in which painful sores or ulcers develop in the inner lining of the stomach or gut (intestine). Axamide 100mg Capsule 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 along with this medicine 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.
In Treatment of Mouth ulcers
Mouth ulcers are small painful sores on inner lips, gums, tongue, roof of the mouth or throat that may interfere with eating, drinking and even talking. Axamide 100mg Capsule blocks chemicals in our brain that are responsible for pain sensation and inflammation.

Continue using it as advised by the doctor to get maximum benefit.
