Introduction
Ometop 10mg/20mg Tablet is a combination medication used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and related symptoms like heartburn, stomach pain, and irritation. It neutralizes stomach acid and promotes the easy passage of gas to reduce discomfort. The medication contains Domperidone, a prokinetic that enhances the movement of the stomach and intestines, and Omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production. While generally well-tolerated, long-term use may lead to weak bones and mineral deficiencies. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist or if you experience severe side effects.
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. Ometop 10mg/20mg Tablet is to be taken on an empty stomach.
How it works
Ometop 10mg/20mg Tablet is a combination of Domperidone and Omeprazole. Domperidone is a prokinetic that increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production, helping to relieve acid-related indigestion and heartburn.
