Olzep D Capsule is an effective medication formulated to provide comprehensive relief from various gastrointestinal discomforts. Each Olzep D Capsule contains a powerful combination of Omeprazole 20 mg + Domperidone 10 mg, making it suitable for treating symptoms like acidity, gas, indigestion, heartburn, nausea, and vomiting. The unique dual-action of its components targets both acid reduction and improved digestive movement.
How Olzep D Capsule Works:
- Omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, works by significantly reducing the amount of acid produced in your stomach, thereby alleviating heartburn and acidity.
- Domperidone, a prokinetic agent, helps to improve the movement of food through your stomach and intestines, reducing feelings of fullness, bloating, and preventing nausea and vomiting.
Dosage and Administration: Typically, one Olzep D Capsule should be taken daily before meals, or as prescribed by your doctor. Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions for the best results.
Common Side Effects: While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as dry mouth, stomach pain, dizziness, or diarrhea. If these persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Important Precautions:
- Avoid consuming alcohol while on this medication, as it may worsen stomach irritation.
- Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have pre-existing liver or heart conditions before starting Olzep D Capsule.
- This medication is not intended for long-term use unless specifically advised by a healthcare professional.
Storage Instructions: Store Olzep D Capsule in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, at a temperature below 30°C. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.

- Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Treats symptoms like heartburn, acid regurgitation, and difficulty swallowing due to acid reflux.
