Introduction
Omiscot D 10mg/20mg Capsule is a combination medication used primarily for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and related conditions. It helps alleviate symptoms such as heartburn, stomach pain, and irritation by neutralizing stomach acid and promoting the easy passage of gas to reduce discomfort. The medication combines Domperidone, a prokinetic that enhances the movement of the stomach and intestines, and Omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid production. While generally well-tolerated, long-term use may lead to weak bones and mineral deficiencies. Patients should consult their doctor if symptoms persist or if they experience severe side effects.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Omiscot D 10mg/20mg Capsule is to be taken on an empty stomach, preferably one hour before a meal.
How it works
Omiscot D 10mg/20mg Capsule 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 through the stomach. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces the amount of acid in the stomach, helping to relieve acid-related indigestion and heartburn.
