BIOGERD -D TAB 10 S

About

BIOGERD -D Tab is a sophisticated combination medication specifically formulated to provide comprehensive relief from the complex symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other acid-peptic disorders. This formulation typically integrates a potent proton pump inhibitor (PPI) with a prokinetic agent, such as domperidone. The PPI component works by irreversibly binding to and blocking the proton pumps located in the parietal cells of the stomach lining, thereby profoundly reducing gastric acid production and facilitating the healing of esophageal erosions and ulcers. Concurrently, the prokinetic agent enhances gastrointestinal motility by increasing the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter and accelerating gastric emptying, which effectively prevents the troublesome reflux of stomach contents back into the esophagus. This synergistic dual action ensures robust acid control and improved gut movement, offering effective and sustained relief from heartburn, acid regurgitation, dyspepsia, and associated nausea.
