Gastrofait 1g Tablets 20s is a sucralfate-based medicine that treats active duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, and chronic gastritis by forming a protective barrier over the damaged stomach lining. Each tablet delivers 1g of sucralfate, which shields the ulcer site from stomach acid, pepsin, and bile salts so the tissue can heal. These gastrofait 1g tablets are a trusted option for managing painful ulcer and gastritis symptoms.

How It Works

Sucralfate works locally in the digestive tract rather than being absorbed into the bloodstream. When it reaches an ulcer, it binds to the exposed proteins at the site and forms a thick, paste-like coating. This protective layer acts as a physical barrier against acid, enzymes, and bile, giving the ulcer the chance to heal while easing the discomfort that comes with it. It treats existing ulcers but does not prevent new ones from forming.

Important Information

This is a prescription medicine and should be used only as directed by your healthcare provider. Take any other medicines at least 2 hours apart from Gastrofait, as sucralfate can reduce how well they are absorbed; this includes certain antibiotics, digoxin, levothyroxine, and others. If you use an antacid, keep it more than 30 minutes away from your sucralfate dose. The most common side effect is constipation. Use with caution if you have kidney problems, as the aluminium in sucralfate may build up. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have diabetes. Store at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light, and keep out of reach of children. Always consult your healthcare provider or pharmacist before use.
