ESOGLO-D is a combination of two drugs: Esomeprazole which is a proton pump inhibitor and Domperidone which is a dopamine antagonist. These medicines belong to a group of gastrointestinal agents that are used to relieve indigestion symptoms (heartburn, stomach pain, or irritation), and in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and stomach ulcers.

HOW IT WORKS

Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that acts by reducing stomach acid and helps in relieving acidity and heartburn. Domperidone is a prokinetic that acts on the stomach and intestines to enhance motility and helps food pass quickly and smoothly through the stomach, which also helps in controlling vomiting. Together, these two drugs help in treating acidity-related problems.
