Domperidone (30 Mg) + Esomeprazole (40 Mg)

ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule is primarily used to manage gastrointestinal disorders such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach. This medicine is a combination of two active ingredients and belongs to a group of medicines known as gastrointestinal agents.

In addition to its key role in managing GERD, this capsule is also used in regulating conditions like peptic ulcers, erosive esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, and controlling symptoms of nausea and vomiting. Particularly useful for addressing nighttime symptoms, this medicine offers round-the-clock acid suppression.

Before you start taking this medication, it's essential to consult your doctor about the dosage and frequency. If you have any pre-existing conditions or are taking other medications, be sure to inform your doctor about them. Follow the duration of the prescription given by your doctor for the best results.

ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule is used for the following:

Management of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
Relief from erosive esophagitis
Control of peptic ulcer disease (PUD)
Management of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
Controlling nausea and vomiting

Here is how you should take ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule:

Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water.
Do not crush, chew, or open the capsule.
For specific advice on dosing or duration, consult your doctor.

Side Effects of Es Omepraz Dsr Capsule 10

ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule may have the following common side effects:

Headache
Diarrhoea
Abdominal Pain
Nausea
Constipation
Rashes on Skin
Dizziness
Flatulence: Excessive accumulation of gas in your stomach and intestines, which can cause discomfort and bloating.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless. They usually disappear once you stop taking ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any symptoms, consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Diarrhoea: Try taking ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule with food and drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration.
Abdominal Pain: If this medicine causes stomach pain, consider taking it after meals to lessen this effect.

ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule comprises two active ingredients:

Domperidone (30 mg): This ingredient increases movement in your food pipe and stomach, enhances emptying of the stomach contents, and reduces feelings of sickness and vomiting.
Esomeprazole (40 mg): This component acts by permanently blocking an enzyme system called H+/K+ ATPase, also known as a proton pump, found in gastric parietal cells lining your stomach. By stopping it, esomeprazole lowers both basic and stimulated gastric acid secretion. This creates favourable conditions for ulcers in your food pipe and stomach to heal.

By working together, these two active ingredients offer prolonged relief from symptoms associated with various gastrointestinal disorders.

ES-Omepraz-DSR Capsule should be used with caution during pregnancy. It's recommended to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
