Esomefol Dsr Capsule 10

Esomefol-DSR Capsule is used for managing the following conditions:

• Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): This is a chronic condition where stomach acid continually flows up into the food pipe, causing heartburn and potential damage.

• Erosive oesophagitis: This condition involves inflammation and damage to the lining of the oesophagus due to stomach acid reflux.

• Zollinger-Ellison syndrome: A rare condition where one or more tumours form in your pancreas or duodenum, causing excess stomach acid production.

• Prevention of NSAID-associated gastric ulcers: These are sores that develop on the lining of your stomach due to long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Here are some general guidelines on how to take Esomefol-DSR Capsule:

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water.

• Avoid crushing, chewing, or opening the capsule.

• It's important not to stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor first.

• This medicine should ideally be taken at least 1 hour before a meal.

Esomefol-DSR Capsule is taken orally.

The activity of Esomefol-DSR Capsule comes from the combined action of its two active ingredients:

• Domperidone (30 mg): Domperidone works as a dopamine antagonist with antiemetic and prokinetic properties. It increases the movement of your stomach and intestines which helps prevent acid reflux and reduces symptoms like nausea and vomiting.

• Esomeprazole (40 mg): This ingredient is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces acid production in your stomach. It does this by blocking a system known as H+/K+ATPase enzyme (also known as the proton pump) in cells that line your stomach, which are responsible for secreting gastric acid.

These two ingredients work together in a sustained-release formulation to provide prolonged relief from symptoms associated with GERD and other acid-related disorders.

• Store Esomefol-DSR Capsule in a cool, dry place, ideally at a temperature not exceeding 30°C.

• Shield it from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its efficacy.

• Always keep the medicine out of reach of children.

• Remember to consume this medication before its expiry date.

• Consider consuming smaller, frequent meals rather than large ones as it eases the digestive process and can assist in managing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition managed by Esomefol-DSR Capsule.

• To reduce acid-related dyspepsia, another condition that Esomefol-DSR Capsule helps manage, avoid spicy and fatty foods as they may irritate your stomach lining. Instead, opt for a balanced diet with lean proteins, fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
