Therapeutic Effects of Rablet L Capsule
Rablet L capsule works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach which helps in the relief of acid-related indigestion and ulcers. Rabeprazole works by inhibiting acid production in the stomach by working on a pump in the stomach called the proton pump, which is responsible for acid secretion. Levosulpiride acts by boosting stomach and intestine motility, preventing acid from refluxing back into the food pipe.
