Salt Composition:
Esomeprazole + Domperidone
Description:
Sompraz D 40mg Capsule combines a higher dose of esomeprazole (a PPI) with domperidone (a prokinetic and antiemetic agent) to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) complicated by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and slow gastric emptying.
Esomeprazole effectively suppresses stomach acid production, providing relief from heartburn and facilitating the healing of erosive esophagitis. Domperidone enhances the motility of the upper digestive tract, promoting faster stomach emptying and reducing feelings of sickness and bloating.
The 40mg strength of esomeprazole may be prescribed for more severe cases of GERD or when a stronger acid-suppressing effect is required. Sompraz D 40mg Capsule is usually taken once daily before a meal. Side effects associated with esomeprazole can include headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
Domperidone’s potential side effects include dry mouth, dizziness, and the risk of cardiac rhythm disturbances, particularly with prolonged use or in patients with pre-existing heart conditions. Medical guidance on dosage and duration is crucial, and the benefits should be weighed against potential risks, especially with long-term use.
