How Nexoage-LS Tablet works

Levosulpiride: Levosulpiride is a prokinetic agent and dopamine antagonist. It works by increasing the movement of the stomach and intestines, which promotes faster gastric emptying and helps reduce symptoms like nausea, bloating, and vomiting. Esomeprazole: Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production by blocking the enzyme responsible for acid secretion.

  • Dosage: Follow the dosage prescribed by your healthcare provider.
  • Typically, one capsule is taken once or twice daily before meals.
