Patient Guide: Aspra-DSR Capsule

Overview Aspra-DSR Capsule is a medication developed by Shinto Organics (P) Limited, containing two active ingredients: Domperidone (30mg) and Esomeprazole (40mg). Our goal is to provide you with clear information about this medication, its uses, and how to use it safely.

Uses Aspra-DSR Capsule is used for general health purposes, including the treatment of conditions related to acid reflux and stomach ulcers. It helps to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate symptoms such as heartburn, bloating, and discomfort.

Mechanism of Action Domperidone works by increasing the movement of food through the stomach and intestines, reducing nausea and vomiting. Esomeprazole, on the other hand, blocks the production of stomach acid, allowing the stomach lining to heal and reducing inflammation.
