Rabemac LS Capsule SR

Description

Rabemac LS Capsule SR is a dual-action medicine that combines Levosulpiride (75mg) and Rabeprazole (20mg).

• Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces excess stomach acid and helps heal acid-related damage to the stomach and esophagus.

• Levosulpiride is a prokinetic agent that enhances stomach and intestinal movement, helping in faster gastric emptying and relieving symptoms like bloating, fullness, and reflux.

This combination is highly effective in patients with acid reflux, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), dyspepsia (indigestion), and related conditions.
