Piltop DSR capsule is an anti-reflux medicine. It is used to treat GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease). GERD is a condition where acid from the stomach flows back to the food pipe. This backflow o

This combination is used in patients in which rabeprazole alone is not able to control acid reflux. Piltop DSR capsules should be taken as directed by the doctor and in the correct doses and for the exact duration as prescribed. It should be taken before meals.
