About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Zelacid-D Capsule SR is a combination pharmaceutical formulation containing Domperidone 30 mg and Rabeprazole 20 mg, designed for the management of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and related upper gastrointestinal disorders. Domperidone, a peripheral dopamine D2 receptor antagonist, enhances gastrointestinal motility and accelerates gastric emptying, thereby alleviating symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and bloating. Rabeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), suppresses gastric acid secretion by irreversibly inhibiting the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system in the gastric parietal cells, providing effective acid control and promoting mucosal healing. The sustained-release (SR) formulation ensures prolonged therapeutic plasma concentrations, enhancing patient compliance and symptom control. Zelacid-D Capsule SR is indicated for patients experiencing acid reflux, erosive esophagitis, and dyspepsia associated with delayed gastric emptying. It should be administered as per physician guidance, typically once daily before meals. Caution is advised in patients with known hypersensitivity to either component, and it is contraindicated in individuals with prolactin-releasing pituitary tumors. Common adverse effects may include headache, dry mouth, and gastrointestinal disturbances. Regular monitoring is recommended during prolonged therapy to assess efficacy and detect potential side effects.
