R-Loc D Tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) and peptic ulcer disease. It relieves heartburn, stomach pain or irritation, and indigestion. It also promotes the movement of food in the stomach to prevent reflux.
R-Loc D Tablet is a combination of two medicines. It is to be taken in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. A high dose or overdose may have harmful effects on the body.
There is limited data on the side effects of R-Loc D Tablet. Let your doctor know if you experience any symptoms while taking R-Loc D Tablet. They may be able to suggest ways to treat or manage the side effects.
Before taking the medicine, always consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Let your doctor also know if you are suffering from any severe stomach, liver, kidney, or any known diseases. Do not take R-Loc D Tablet if you have a known history of allergic reactions to any of the components of this medicine.
In Treatment of Gastroesophageal reflux disease (Acid reflux)
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic (long-term) condition in which there is an excess production of acid in the stomach. R-Loc D Tablet reduces the amount of acid your stomach makes and relieves the pain associated with heartburn and acid reflux. You should take it exactly as prescribed for it to be effective.
Some simple lifestyle changes can help reduce the symptoms of GERD. Think about what foods trigger heartburn and try to avoid them; eat smaller, more frequent meals; try to lose weight if you are overweight; and try to find ways to relax. Do not eat within 3-4 hours of going to bed.
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). R-Loc D Tablet 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.
Side effects of R-Loc D Tablet
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How R-Loc D Tablet works

Ranitidine is an H2 blocker that reduces stomach acid production, providing relief from acid-related conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcers.
