Medical Description
Sompraz L capsule contains a combination of esomeprazole and levosulpiride as active ingredients. It is an anti-reflux medicine that is used for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

A combination of esomeprazole and levosulpiride is also included in Nexpro L capsule, Esogress L Sr capsule, Esmetru L capsule, Esomac L capsule and Esomefol Sl capsule.
