Medical Description

Veloz D capsule is used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), causing symptoms like heartburn, belching, nausea, and chest pain. This medicine is a combination of rabeprazole and domperidone, which work together to decrease the amount of acid produced in the stomach and enhance the movement of food through the gut. By doing so, Veloz D aids in preventing the backward flow of stomach contents into the food pipe. It is crucial to take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor, adhering to the recommended dosage and duration.

Some other capsules containing rabeprazole and domperidone are Razo D capsule, Rabekind DSR capsule, Rabesec DSR capsule and Rabium DSR capsule. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, about all the medicines and supplements you take and all the conditions or diseases you suffer from before starting Veloz D capsule.

Along with taking medicine on time, certain lifestyle modifications can help you manage your acidity problem better. Try eating smaller meals, eating slowly to avoid overeating, and lying down immediately after having a meal. Limit your intake of alcohol, avoid smoking, and maintain a healthy weight. Consult the doctor to understand what works best for you.
