It is primarily used to manage symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) such as heartburn, chest pain, and nausea.
How Rabewal D Capsule Works
Rabewal reduces stomach ulcers and acid reflux. It contains:
- Rabeprazole (20 mg): This ingredient reduces acid production in the stomach. It does this by blocking certain cells in your stomach called proton pumps. By inhibiting these pumps, rabeprazole lowers the amount of stomach acid produced, helping heal the damaged oesophagus and preventing further injury.
- Domperidone (10 mg): This component increases the movement of your stomach and intestines. It tightens the muscles at the top of your stomach and relaxes those at the bottom. This action prevents acid from flowing back into your food pipe, thereby managing symptoms such as heartburn and chest pain.
