How Helipac Products work
Omeprazole + Tinidazole + Amoxycillin is a combination of three medicines: Omeprazole, Tinidazole and Amoxicillin, which treats stomach/intestinal ulcers due to bacterial infections. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) which reduces the amount of acid in the stomach and treats acid-related indigestion and ulcers. Tinidazole is an antibiotic which kills the bacteria and other microorganisms that cause infections by damaging their DNA. Amoxicillin is also an antibiotic which works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering that is essential for the survival of bacteria in the human body. Together, they eradicate your infection effectively.
