Progut-N Tablet is a combination medicine containing Naproxen Sodium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and Esomeprazole Magnesium, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It is designed to provide effective relief from pain and inflammation while protecting the stomach from NSAID-induced gastric irritation. This combination is commonly used in musculoskeletal and inflammatory conditions requiring long-term pain management with gastric safety.
