Omeprazole 20mg + Domperidone 10mg Capsule

Description

Gojigas-D capsule is a combination gastrointestinal medication designed to provide effective relief from acid-related disorders and symptoms caused by delayed gastric emptying. By combining the acid-suppressing power of omeprazole with the prokinetic action of domperidone, this capsule addresses both excessive acidity and impaired gastrointestinal motility. Omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), works by selectively and irreversibly inhibiting the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme in gastric parietal cells. This action significantly reduces the production of stomach acid, allowing the gastric and esophageal lining to heal and providing relief from symptoms such as heartburn, acid regurgitation, stomach pain, and erosive esophagitis. Omeprazole is also used in the management of peptic ulcers and as part of combination therapy for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection. Domperidone 10 mg is a dopamine D2 receptor antagonist that enhances gastrointestinal motility and accelerates gastric emptying. By increasing the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter and promoting forward movement of stomach contents, domperidone helps alleviate bloating, nausea, vomiting, early satiety, and reflux symptoms associated with delayed gastric emptying. The capsule is formulated to ensure optimal absorption of both active ingredients. Omeprazole is usually released in the intestine for maximum effectiveness, while domperidone provides timely relief from motility-related discomfort. This combination capsule is typically taken orally, before meals, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. It is suitable for patients experiencing chronic acid reflux, gastritis, or functional dyspepsia with associated nausea or bloating. Common side effects are generally mild and may include headache, dizziness, mild abdominal discomfort, or dry mouth. Rare but serious reactions, such as allergic responses or cardiac rhythm disturbances (especially with domperidone), require immediate medical attention. Gojigas-D capsules offer a comprehensive dual-action approach for managing acid-related disorders while improving digestive motility, providing rapid and long-lasting symptom relief.
