Increasing the dosage of Sompraz-D 40 to twice a day on your own is not recommended and can be medically unsafe . Sompraz-D contains a combination of Esomeprazole (an acid suppressant) and Domperidone (a prokinetic agent) . While taking a plain proton pump inhibitor (PPI) twice a day is sometimes prescribed for severe reflux under strict medical supervision, doubling a combination drug that contains Domperidone carries a potential risk of side effects, including cardiac rhythm changes (QT prolongation), and should never be done without a proper clinical evaluation.
If your frequent acid reflux is persisting irrespective of what you eat, it suggests that the current treatment plan needs to be re-evaluated, or a different medical approach needs to be added (
