HOW RAPENOLE DSR WORKS
Rapenole DSR is a combination of two medicines: Domperidone and Rabeprazole.
Domperidone is a prokinetic that increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, helping food pass more easily.
Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production, thereby relieving acid-related indigestion and heartburn.
