Rabitor-40Mg Plus Tablet

Question 1

How does Rabitor-40Mg Plus Tablet work?

Accepted Answer

Rabitor-40Mg Plus Tablet contains Rabeprazole and Levosulpiride. Rabeprazole works by blocking an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for the production of acid. Levosulpiride works by increasing the pressure of the inferior oesophageal (food pipe) sphincter, thereby prevents the backflow of food and acid into the mouth. Together, Rabitor-40Mg Plus Tablet helps in providing relief from acidity.
