Rapicure D 10mg/325mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Domperidone and Paracetamol. Domperidone is a prokinetic that works on the region in the brain that controls vomiting. It also increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach. This prevents nausea and vomiting caused by migraine. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and an anti-pyretic (fever reducer) that blocks the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and fever associated with migraine.
