About
This medication is a combination therapy designed to effectively manage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and other conditions associated with excessive stomach acid and impaired gastrointestinal motility. It contains Rabeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that potently reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the H+/K+-ATPase enzyme system in the stomach's parietal cells. This action promotes healing of acid-related damage and alleviates symptoms like heartburn and acid regurgitation. The addition of Domperidone, a prokinetic agent, enhances the movement of food through the digestive tract, increases the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter, and reduces nausea and vomiting. This dual mechanism ensures comprehensive relief by controlling acid production and improving digestive transit.
