Esotac Capsule 20 mg contains Esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce excess stomach acid production. It is widely prescribed for acid-related disorders such as heartburn, acid reflux, and peptic ulcer disease.

Esomeprazole helps control symptoms caused by excessive acid in the stomach and supports healing of the stomach and esophageal lining. It is commonly used for both short-term and long-term management of gastric acid-related conditions under medical supervision.
