Composition

Domperidone (10 Mg) + Omeprazole (20 Mg)

Nogacid D Capsule is typically used to manage gastrointestinal disorders associated with excessive acid production and impaired gastric motility. This combination medicine falls under the category of proton pump inhibitors and dopamine receptor antagonists.

In addition to its primary use, it can also help manage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, and conditions associated with nausea and vomiting. Where the stomach's natural movements are hindered, it aids in promoting proper gastrointestinal motility.

Before starting this medicine, you should consult your doctor for the correct dosage and frequency. Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medicines you may be taking. If you observe any side effects while on this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. For the best results, continue the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor.

Do not change or exceed the prescribed dose without consulting your doctor.

Nogacid D Capsule may have the following common side effects:

Headache
Dizziness
Diarrhoea
Abdominal pain
Nausea
Dry mouth
Rash

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Nogacid D Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Diarrhoea: Drink plenty of healthy fluids to stay hydrated and follow the diet recommended by your doctor.
Dry mouth: Consider taking this medicine with a glass of water to help moisten your mouth.

Nogacid D Capsule contains two active ingredients:

Domperidone (10 mg): As a dopamine receptor antagonist, domperidone works on the chemoreceptor trigger zone and your upper gastrointestinal tract. It improves gastrointestinal motility by counteracting the inhibitory effects of dopamine on your digestive system.
Omeprazole (20 mg): Classified as a proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole decreases gastric acid secretion. It works by inhibiting an enzyme system in the stomach lining cells known as H+/K+ ATPase, which consequently reduces the production of stomach acid.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Nogacid D Capsule if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, you should consult your doctor before using Nogacid D Capsule.

Alcohol

It's always wise to moderate your alcohol consumption while taking any medicine. Consult your doctor for advice if you consume alcohol regularly.

Liver

Patients with liver problems should discuss their health conditions with their doctor before starting Nogacid D Capsule. This medicine might affect liver function, especially in patients with severe liver diseases.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Nogacid D Capsule if you have a history of kidney problems. It's a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Nogacid D Capsule does not affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. However, if you experience side effects like dizziness or headaches, it's best to avoid such activities.

Allergy

Nogacid D Capsule is not recommended for use if you're allergic to domperidone or omeprazole or any other ingredients in the capsule. Consult your doctor if you have any known allergies.

Children

Caution is advised while giving Nogacid D Capsule to children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Nogacid D Capsule under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Nogacid D Capsule interacts with the following medicines:

CYP2C19 Inhibitors: Medicines like clopidogrel and fluconazole inhibit an enzyme needed to break down omeprazole in your body. So, when taken with Nogacid D Capsule, these can increase omeprazole levels in your system and enhance its effects.
Heart medicines: Digoxin is more readily absorbed by your body when you take Nogacid D Capsule at the same time. This means you might need to monitor your digoxin levels more closely.

Drug-Food Interactions

No specific food interacts significantly with Nogacid D Capsule.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Nogacid D Capsule interacts with the following diseases:

Cardiovascular Disease: If you have a pre-existing heart condition, you should use Nogacid D Capsule cautiously as domperidone can lengthen your QT interval and increase your risk of serious ventricular arrhythmias.
Hypomagnesaemia: Long-term use of omeprazole may lead to lowered magnesium levels in your blood. Especially if you're on other medicines that lower magnesium levels, you should monitor your blood magnesium levels more closely when taking Nogacid D Capsule.
Osteoporosis: Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole could increase your risk of fractures related to osteoporosis. If you're at risk of osteoporosis, you should be closely monitored and managed while taking Nogacid D Capsule.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Nogacid D Capsule should be taken as directed by your doctor. The dosage may vary based on individual factors such as the severity of your condition and your response to the medicine. It is vital to adhere to the prescribed dosage and not exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

In case you inadvertently take more than the prescribed amount of Nogacid D Capsule, you may experience common side effects like headache, dizziness, or abdominal pain. If such symptoms persist, inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you happen to miss a dose of Nogacid D Capsule, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, go ahead with the upcoming one and skip the missed dose. Remember to never adjust your dosage without consulting with your doctor.

Store Nogacid D Capsule at room temperature, which is below 25°C.
Protect it from light and keep it in a dry place away from moisture.
Ensure that the medicine is kept out of reach of children.
Always check the expiry date on the pack before use.

If you're dealing with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition Nogacid D Capsule helps manage, avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods that can trigger heartburn. Opt for bland, easy-to-digest meals instead.
As peptic ulcer disease is another condition managed by this medication, cut down on caffeine and alcohol intake to reduce stomach acid production.
