Mulrab-DSR Capsules

Key Ingredients:
Rabeprazole 20 mg + Domperidone 30 mg (SR)

Mulrab-DSR is a gastrointestinal medicine composed of Rabeprazole and Domperidone. Together, these two medicines reduce the amount of excess acid production in your stomach and decrease the symptoms of nausea and vomiting. It treats symptoms of acid reflux due to hyperacidity, stomach ulcer (Peptic ulcer disease), and Zollinger Ellison syndrome (overproduction of acid due to a pancreatic tumour). Besides this it is used for short-term to treat symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

GERD is a condition in which the sphincter (valve) located at the uppermost part of the stomach gets irritated and damaged due to excessive acid production in the stomach. As a result, the stomach acid and gastric juices flow back into the food pipe (esophagus), leading to stomach upset and heartburn. Heartburn is the post effect of the acid reflux with a burning like feeling that rises from the stomach towards the throat.
Mulrab-DSR Capsule contains two medicines, namely Rabeprazole and Domperidone. Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that helps in reducing the excessive production of stomach acid by blocking the actions of an enzyme (H+/K+ ATPase or gastric proton pump). This gastric proton pumps lie in the cells of the stomach wall responsible for the release of excessive gastric acid secretions damaging tissues in the food pipe, stomach, and duodenum (uppermost part of the small intestine). On the other hand, Domperidone is a prokinetic agent that increases the motility of the upper gastrointestinal tract and blocks the vomiting inducing centre.
