Acotiamate 100 (Acotiamide) is specifically designed for patients suffering from Functional Dyspepsia. It is a first-in-class prokinetic agent that enhances the release of acetylcholine in the stomach, which stimulates gastric motility and improves stomach emptying.
Unlike standard antacids that only neutralize acid, Acotiamate addresses the mechanical aspect of digestion. It is highly effective for:
-
Postprandial Fullness: That heavy, uncomfortable feeling after a normal meal.
-
Upper Abdominal Bloating: Reducing the visible and felt swelling in the upper gut.
-
Early Satiety: Allowing you to finish your meals without feeling prematurely full.
By improving the coordination of stomach muscles, Acotiamate 100 helps restore a natural digestive rhythm and reduces the chronic discomfort associated with a “slow” stomach.
