How Does It Work?

• Esogress D capsule is a combination medicine containing esomeprazole and domperidone as active substances.
• A pump called the proton pump in the stomach is responsible for the flow of stomach acids. Esomeprazole works by binding to this proton pump in stomach cells and blocking the acid secretion.
• Domperidone acts by increasing the motility of the stomach and intestines so that acid does not reflux back into the food pipe.
