Jan Aushadhi Products containing Levosulpiride
Found 5 generic formulation(s) containing this active ingredient.
Pantoprazole 40mg (Enteric Coated) + Levosulpiride 75mg (Sustained Release) Capsules
Pantoprazole (40mg enteric-coated) and Levosulpiride (75mg sustained-release) is a potent combination of a proton pump inhibitor and a prokinetic benzamide. Pantoprazole profoundly suppresses gastric acid synthesis by blocking H+/K+-ATPase pumps. Levosulpiride is the levorotatory enantiomer of sulpiride that selectively antagonizes dopamine D2 receptors in the enteric nervous system and acts as an agonist at 5-HT4 receptors, accelerating gastric and gallbladder emptying and improving antropyloric coordination. Indicated for severe GERD refractory to conventional prokinetics, diabetic gastroparesis, and functional dyspepsia with prominent postprandial distress syndrome.
Esomeprazole 40mg (Enteric-coated) + Levosulpiride 75mg (Sustained release) Capsules
Esomeprazole (40mg enteric-coated) and Levosulpiride (75mg sustained-release) combines an S-isomer proton pump inhibitor with a central/peripheral prokinetic benzamide. Esomeprazole exerts long-lasting suppression of basal and meal-stimulated gastric acid secretion. Levosulpiride selectively blocks enteric D2 receptors and stimulates 5-HT4 receptors, dramatically improving gastric accommodation and antral motility. Indicated for severe GERD, refractory non-ulcer dyspepsia, and gastroparesis.
