How Aciloc RD Tablet works:

By inhibiting this enzyme, it effectively reduces stomach acid production, lowering acidity and helping to treat conditions like GERD, acid reflux, and peptic ulcers.

Domperidone, on the other hand, is a gastro-prokinetic and anti-nausea drug. It works by blocking dopamine receptors in the upper part of the digestive system, helping food move through the stomach and preventing nausea and vomiting.
