SOMPRAZ IT CAPSULE 10'S

How SOMPRAZ IT CAPSULE 10'S Works

• SOMPRAZ IT CAPSULE 10'S is a combination medication designed to treat gastrointestinal issues related to excessive acid production and infections. It contains two active ingredients: Esomeprazole and Itopride.
• Esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. Parietal cells in the stomach lining are responsible for secreting hydrochloric acid, which is crucial for digestion. Esomeprazole specifically targets and inhibits the hydrogen-potassium ATPase enzyme system, also known as the proton pump, located on the surface of these parietal cells. By blocking this enzyme, esomeprazole effectively reduces the production of gastric acid. This helps to alleviate symptoms associated with acid reflux, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
• Itopride, a prokinetic agent, enhances gastric motility and accelerates gastric emptying. It works through a dual mechanism: it inhibits dopamine D2 receptors and inhibits acetylcholinesterase. By blocking dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) and the gastrointestinal tract, itopride reduces nausea and vomiting. Furthermore, by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, itopride increases the concentration of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, promoting muscle contractions in the stomach and accelerating the emptying of gastric contents into the small intestine. This action helps to relieve symptoms of bloating, fullness, and discomfort associated with gastroparesis and functional dyspepsia.
• The combined action of Esomeprazole and Itopride addresses both acid-related symptoms and motility issues in the gastrointestinal tract. By reducing acid production, esomeprazole protects the esophageal lining from acid damage and promotes healing of ulcers. At the same time, itopride improves gastric emptying, preventing the buildup of stomach contents and further reducing acid reflux. This synergistic effect makes SOMPRAZ IT CAPSULE 10'S effective in managing conditions where both acid control and motility enhancement are required for optimal symptom relief and healing.

Other potential side effects are blurred vision, changes in taste, increased sweating, and muscle pain. This is not an exhaustive list, and it is important to contact your doctor if you experience any unusual or severe side effects.
