INTRODUCTION

RABEE D CAPSULE is a combination of Domperidone and Rabeprazole which belongs to the group of medicines called Dopamine Antagonists and Proton pump inhibitors respectively. RABEE D CAPSULE is used to treat Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) among patients who have not responded adequately to rabeprazole alone.

GERD is a chronic digestive disease in which the stomach acid frequently flows into the esophagus leading to irritation of lining of food pipe. Symptoms include heartburn, chest pain, nausea, sensation of lump in throat and stomach discomfort.

RABEE D CAPSULE can also be used to treat peptic ulcers caused by H. pylori infection or NSAIDs use. Peptic ulcers are painful sores that develop on the linings of the stomach, esophagus or intestines. Symptoms include stomach pain, flatulence, indigestion, vomiting and fatigue.

Along treatment with RABEE D CAPSULE, try to eat less spicy foods and drink plenty of water or fluids. Avoid smoking or alcohol consumption as it may aggravate your existing condition.

Patients receiving long-term treatment with RABEE D CAPSULE should be kept on regular surveillance to rule out the risk of hypomagnesaemia (decreased magnesium levels in blood) and bone fracture, predominantly in the elderly patients and in patients with other recognized risk factors. Before taking RABEE D CAPSULE inform your doctor if you have any liver, kidney or heart problems. Your doctor may reduce the dose or suggest an alternative therapy.

RABEE D CAPSULE is not recommended for use in pregnant or breastfeeding women and in children (aged less than 18 years). It should be used with caution in elderly patients (above 65 years of age).

The most common side effects of taking RABEE D CAPSULE are nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea or constipation. Consult your doctor if any of these symptoms worsen.

USES OF RABEE D CAPSULE

  • Treats peptic ulcer
  • Treats Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) (not responding to therapy with rabeprazole alone)

HOW RABEE D CAPSULE WORKS

RABEE D CAPSULE reduces stomach ulcers and acid reflux, where rabeprazole acts by inhibiting the secretions of stomach acid and domperidone acts by increasing bowel movements and facilitating gastric emptying, thus leading to rapid symptom relief and healing of stomach ulcers and esophageal lesions.
