Peptocid Suspension: Each 30 ml contains 525.6 mg Bismuth Subsalicylate BP.
Antacid action: Peptocid coats ulcer surface, protecting it from acid and pepsin. It stimulates mucus and bicarbonate secretion and also reacts with HCl, producing bismuth oxychloride and salicylic acid. Thus it reduces HCl.
Anti-diarrheal action: Bismuth Subsalicylate stimulates absorption of water and electrolytes across the intestinal wall. In infectious diarrhea it binds with toxin produced by E.coli and disrupts cell, causing lysis of H.pylori and prevents adhesion of H.pylori in the cell wall of intestine.
Anti-inflammatory action: Salicylic acid from hydrolyzed Bismuth Subsalicylate inhibits prostaglandin G/H synthase. Thus reduces inflammation and coats irritated tissue to retard the expulsion of fluid.
Peptocid is indicated for indigestion, gastric fullness, bloating, belching, growling stomach, sour stomach and diarrhea.
12 years and above: 30 ml at a time.
Dose can be repeated after 1-2 hours if necessary. Daily maximum intake should not exceed 8 doses.
Less than 12 years: Please contact with physician.
