Introduction
Denspan-DSR Capsule is a combination medication used to treat conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), dyspepsia, and gastritis. It works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach, thereby alleviating symptoms such as heartburn, stomach pain, and irritation. The medication combines Domperidone, a prokinetic that enhances the movement of the stomach and intestines, and Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that decreases stomach acid production. While effective, it may have side effects and should be used under medical supervision, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush, or break it. Denspan-DSR Capsule is to be taken on an empty stomach.
How it works
Denspan-DSR Capsule is a combination of Domperidone and Pantoprazole. Domperidone increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily. Pantoprazole reduces stomach acid, helping relieve acid-related indigestion and heartburn.
