Introduction
Esomax D 30mg/40mg Capsule is a prescription medicine used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and indigestion.

The medicine is generally well-tolerated but may cause side effects in some individuals. Long-term use can lead to weak bones and mineral deficiencies. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

How it works
Esomax D 30mg/40mg Capsule is a combination of two medicines: Domperidone and Esomeprazole. Domperidone is a prokinetic that increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach. Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the amount of acid in the stomach, helping to relieve acid-related indigestion and heartburn.

It is a well-tolerated medicine and provides relief for a long time. Inform your doctor if you get watery diarrhea, fever, or stomach pain that does not go away. Inform your doctor if you do not feel better after taking it for 14 days as you may be suffering from some other problem that needs attention. Long-term use can cause weak bones and deficiency of minerals such as magnesium. Take adequate dietary intake of calcium and magnesium or their supplements as prescribed by your doctor.
