Overview

Welcome to this patient guide for Wahrab-LS Capsule SR, a medication developed by Logimed Pharma Pvt Ltd to support your overall health and well-being. This guide is designed to provide you with essential information about the uses, dosage, and potential side effects of this medication.

Uses

Wahrab-LS Capsule SR is a combination of two active ingredients: Levosulpiride and Rabeprazole. Levosulpiride is an antiemetic and prokinetic agent that helps to relieve nausea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort. Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the production of stomach acid, providing relief from heartburn, acid reflux, and stomach ulcers.

Mechanism of Action

Levosulpiride works by stimulating the movement of food through the digestive system, reducing nausea and vomiting. Rabeprazole, on the other hand, blocks the production of stomach acid by reducing the activity of the proton pumps in the stomach lining.
