Tak D tablet is used for gastric ulcers, benign duodenal ulcers, inflammation of the oesophagus, acid peptic disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and other gastric acid-related conditions. Tak D tablets are part of a class of Antacids, Antireflux Agents & Antiulcerants. Secretion of high amounts of acid in the stomach can cause gastric acid-related disorders.
The two salts that form the composition of Tak D are; Dicyclomine and Ranitidine. Dicyclomine belongs to a class of drugs called antispasmodics, which helps with cramps, and Ranitidine is an antacid, which reduces the acid in the stomach. The medication is only to be taken after medical advice.

If there is an incident of overdosing, and the patient shows serious symptoms like passing out or trouble breathing, consult a doctor immediately. Some symptoms of overdose may include: large pupils, hot/dry skin, fever, severe dizziness, severe thirst, difficulty swallowing, mental/mood changes (such as confusion, unusual excitement), fast/irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness, inability to move (paralysis), slowed breathing, fainting, seizures.
Take the missed Tak D dose as soon as you remember. However, If you are due for your next dose, just take the next dose and return to the regular schedule. Do not take two doses at one go.
The two active ingredients of Tak D work their ways to help with cramps and reduce heartburn caused by high acid levels in the stomach. While Dicyclomine relaxes the stomach and intestine muscles to stop muscle contractions, Ranitidine, an H2 blocker, works to reduce acid in the stomach to relieve indigestion and heartburn due to acid.

Pharmacists also advise patients not to drink alcohol with medicines as alcohol intensifies drowsiness side-effects. Always consult your doctor for recommendations specific to your body and health conditions.
