Intended use

  • Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
  • Acid reflux and heartburn
  • Non-ulcer dyspepsia
  • Nausea, bloating and fullness accompanying acid-related complaints

How it helps

Rabeprazole Sodium (enteric coated)
A proton pump inhibitor. It blocks the gastric H+/K+-ATPase enzyme, reducing the acid the stomach produces. The enteric coating carries it past stomach acid so it is absorbed in the intestine.
Domperidone (sustained release)
A dopamine antagonist that encourages the stomach to empty and helps settle nausea. The sustained release pellets spread its action through the day.

Benefits
