Zulbex is primarily used to treat conditions caused by excess stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and duodenal ulcers. It helps relieve symptoms like persistent heartburn, acid indigestion, and sour stomach. The medication works by lowering acid production in the stomach, promoting healing of the esophagus and stomach lining.
