ACOTIAMATE ER 300 is formulated for once-daily dosing, ensuring prolonged action to relieve uncomfortable digestive symptoms such as early satiety, bloating, and post-meal fullness. It enhances gastric emptying and improves stomach motility by modulating the acetylcholine pathways responsible for gastrointestinal movement. Uses of Acotiamide 300 mg Tablet ACOTIAMATE ER 300 is prescribed for: Functional Dyspepsia (non-ulcer indigestion) Postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) Meal-related bloating and early satiety Chronic indigestion without identifiable cause Gastrointestinal motility disorders This tablet is particularly beneficial for patients who do not have ulcers but still suffer from chronic upper abdominal discomfort, making it a preferred non-PPI-based option for functional dyspepsia management. How Does Acotiamide Work? Acotiamide works by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby increasing the availability of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that stimulates smooth muscle activity.
