Tambres 10mg Tablet

About

Tambres is a potent and selective proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that exerts its therapeutic effect by inhibiting the H+/K+-ATPase enzyme system, the final common pathway for gastric acid secretion in the parietal cells of the stomach. This irreversible blockade leads to a significant and prolonged reduction in both basal and stimulated gastric acid output, effectively controlling acid-related symptoms and promoting mucosal healing. It is widely used in the management of conditions such as symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), healing and maintenance of erosive esophagitis, and the treatment of duodenal and gastric ulcers. The drug's efficacy is well-documented in providing sustained acid suppression, which is vital for alleviating discomfort and preventing complications associated with excessive stomach acid. Tambres is primarily metabolized in the liver, with its inactive metabolites subsequently excreted, ensuring its systemic elimination and a predictable pharmacokinetic profile.
