| RABEPRAZOLE SODIUM & DOMPERIDONE SR CAPSULES |
RABEPRAZOLE SODIUM & DOMPERIDONE SR CAPSULES is a gastrointestinal agent that is used to treat acid reflux, heartburn, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, nausea, vomiting, stomach fullness, bloating, gas, helicobacter pylori infection, and gastric and duodenal ulcers. When the gastric glands create more stomach acid than is necessary for digestion, this is referred to as acidity.
Rabeprazole
sodium (proton pump inhibitor) and Domperidone (dopamine antagonist)
are combined as RABEPRAZOLE SODIUM & DOMPERIDONE SR CAPSULES.
Rabeprazole sodium acts by inhibiting the function of a stomach proton
pump enzyme, which is responsible for acid generation. Domperidone acts
by increasing stomach muscle activity and contractions. RABEPRAZOLE
SODIUM & DOMPERIDONE SR CAPSULES works together to cure acidity
issues.
