Overtopan DSR Capsules
(Pantoprazole 40 mg + Domperidone 30 mg (PR))
Description:
Overtopan DSR Capsules combine the proton pump inhibitor Pantoprazole with the prokinetic agent Domperidone (PR) to provide effective relief from acid-related gastrointestinal issues, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and chronic gastritis. This dual-action formula addresses both the root cause of excess stomach acid production and the discomfort caused by delayed gastric emptying, ensuring comprehensive management of acid reflux and associated symptoms like heartburn, bloating, and nausea.
Key Ingredients:
- Pantoprazole 40 mg: A proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that works by inhibiting the final step in gastric acid production, reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. Pantoprazole is highly effective in treating acid-related disorders such as GERD, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, providing long-lasting relief from acid reflux and heartburn.
- Domperidone 30 mg (PR): A prokinetic agent that enhances gastric motility, promoting faster movement of food through the stomach and intestines. Domperidone also acts as an antiemetic, preventing nausea and vomiting caused by acid reflux and delayed gastric emptying. Its prolonged-release (PR) formulation ensures sustained action for optimal symptom control throughout the day.
Indications:
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Chronic gastritis
- Peptic ulcers
- Acid reflux
- Dyspepsia (indigestion)
- Heartburn, nausea, and bloating associated with delayed gastric emptying
Benefits of Overtopan DSR:
- Effectively reduces excess stomach acid production, providing long-term relief from acid reflux, heartburn, and related conditions.
- Enhances gastric motility and promotes faster gastric emptying, alleviating bloating, nausea, and the discomfort of indigestion.
- The combination of Pantoprazole and Domperidone ensures comprehensive treatment for both acid suppression and improved digestive function.
- Helps prevent the recurrence of peptic ulcers and protects the esophagus from acid damage in patients with GERD.

Overtopan DSR Capsules offer a dual-action solution for managing acid-related gastrointestinal disorders. By combining the acid-suppressing power of Pantoprazole with the prokinetic action of Domperidone, this formulation not only reduces excess stomach acid but also improves gastric motility, providing comprehensive relief from acid reflux, heartburn, indigestion, and associated symptoms.
