Indication:

Teprenone, also known as geranylgeranylacetone, is an anti-ulcer and gastric mucoprotective agent used to treat gastric ulcers and gastritis. It acts by promoting the healing of gastric mucosa and protecting it from damage. The full mechanisms of action are still unclear, but teprenone has been shown to increase gastric mucosal mucus levels and exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.

Dosage:

The dosage of teprenone may vary depending on the specific condition being treated and individual patient factors. It is important to follow the specific dosage instructions provided by a healthcare provider. Here are some general dosage guidelines:

• Oral Capsules: The usual adult dosage for oral use is 150 mg of teprenone daily, divided into three equal doses after meals. This corresponds to three capsules of 50 mg each. The dosage may be adjusted depending on the patient's age and symptoms.
• Administration: Teprenone capsules should be taken orally with meals. It is important to take the prescribed dosage as directed by a healthcare provider. Do not take more or less of it and do not take it more often than prescribed.

Please note that these are general dosage guidelines, and individual dosing may vary. It is essential to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized dosage instructions and any specific precautions or considerations based on your individual circumstances.
