Q1. How does OPEL 20 CAPSULE work? OPEL 20 CAPSULE effectively lowers the amount of acid produced in the stomach by irreversibly binding to and inhibiting the hydrogen-potassium ATPase pump that resides on the lining of the digestive tract. This kind of action helps to reduce vomiting and promote the healing of damaged stomach tissue in ulcers.

To manage this effect, take fibre-rich foods in your diet such as fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grain cereals and drink plenty of fluids.
