Graphene (/ËÉ¡rÃ¦f.iËn/) is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a two-dimensional, atomic-scale, hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. It is the basic structural element of other allotropes, including graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes.
Proton pump inhibitors are a type of acid reducer that helps to decrease levels of acid in your stomach. They work by causing your body to make less stomach acid. This helps to treat heartburn and acid reflux problems. Another type of acid reducer, in addition to a proton pump inhibitor, is an H2 blocker.
Clinical Use. Proton pump inhibitors are orally active and used for the therapy of gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, and, combined with antibiotics, for eradication of Helicobacter pylori. The primary effect of these proton pump inhibitors is gastric acid suppression.
