Medication details

Description

Pyrocalm Control 20mg

Pyrocalm Control 20mg relieves the symptoms of acid reflux, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Reflux is the backflow of acid from the stomach into the gullet, which can become inflamed and painful. Pyrocalm Control reduces the production of stomach acid to increase comfort and reduce reflux.

How it works

The active ingredient is omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor. Acid is made by pumps in the lining of the stomach, and a PPI switches those pumps off at source. That is different from an antacid, which neutralises acid already present and wears off within the hour. Because it reduces production rather than reacting to what is there, the relief lasts longer, but it builds over two to three days rather than working immediately.

How to use it

Swallow the tablet whole with water, in the morning before food, as directed on the pack. Do not chew or crush it. It is taken as a short course rather than as a single dose when symptoms appear, and many people notice the benefit on the second or third day. Smaller evening meals, less alcohol and caffeine, and not lying down soon after eating all help alongside.

Who it is for

Pharmacy supply is for adults aged 18 and over with heartburn and reflux symptoms. It is not for anyone under 18 without medical advice, and a pharmacist should be consulted if you take other medicines, since omeprazole interacts with several, including clopidogrel and methotrexate.

Safety and when to get advice

Headache, diarrhoea, constipation, wind and nausea are among the reported effects. Over the counter use is intended as a short course; see a GP rather than repeating it if symptoms keep returning. Seek medical advice promptly for difficulty or pain on swallowing, food sticking, unexplained weight loss, persistent vomiting, vomit resembling coffee grounds, black tarry stools, or new heartburn over the age of 55. Seek emergency help for chest pain with breathlessness or sweating. Our UK pharmacy team can answer questions about this product before you buy.

Common questions

Why is it not working straight away?
A PPI builds over two to three days. An antacid is what works immediately.

How long should I take it?
As a short course per the pack. Recurring symptoms should be assessed by a GP.

Can I take an antacid alongside?
Often yes for breakthrough symptoms. Ask a pharmacist about timing.

Always read the patient information leaflet supplied with the pack before use.

Directions

For adults aged 18 and older, the recommended dosage of Pyrocalm Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets is one tablet daily. It's advisable to take the tablet at least one hour before a meal, usually in the morning. Swallow the tablet whole with water, and do not chew or crush it. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage and the instructions provided by your healthcare professional.

Ingredients

Each Pyrocalm Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablet contains 20mg of esomeprazole as the active ingredient. Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that works by reducing the production of stomach acid. The tablet's other components include microcrystalline cellulose, glycerol monostearate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, methacrylic acid-ethyl acrylate copolymer (30% dispersion), crospovidone, sodium stearyl fumarate, sugar spheres, talc, and triethyl citrate.

Side Effects

Like all medications, Pyrocalm Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets may cause side effects in some individuals. Common side effects include headaches, gastrointestinal symptoms (such as nausea, abdominal pain, or diarrhea), and an altered sense of taste. These side effects are generally mild and transient. If you experience any side effects, it's advisable to consult your healthcare provider.
In rare cases, some individuals may experience more serious side effects such as severe allergic reactions, kidney problems, or low magnesium levels. If you notice any unusual symptoms or signs of a severe reaction, seek medical attention immediately.

Warnings

Allergies: If you are allergic to esomeprazole or any of the tablet's ingredients, it's important to avoid taking Pyrocalm Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets.
Medical Conditions: Inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions you have, especially if you have liver problems or osteoporosis.

Interactions: Certain medications, including some antiretroviral drugs and medications for fungal infections, may interact with esomeprazole. Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider before using this medication if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Long-Term Use: Prolonged use of proton pump inhibitors like esomeprazole may increase the risk of bone fractures and certain infections. Discuss the duration of treatment with your healthcare provider.

It's crucial to adhere to your healthcare provider's recommendations and attend regular check-ups while using Pyrocalm Control 20mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets. If you have any concerns or questions about the medication, consult your healthcare professional for personalized guidance.
