This is a paid consultation. I provide structured, step-by-step treatment plans with simple explanations, focused management, and follow-up until recovery.
Avoid delays and self-medication—get the right treatment from the start.
Sompraz IT is a combination of Esomeprazole (a Proton Pump Inhibitor) and Itopride (a prokinetic agent). While the Esomeprazole component is safe for longer-term use, Itopride—which increases stomach motility—is typically prescribed for shorter durations (2–4 weeks) to treat functional dyspepsia or GERD. Extending the prokinetic beyond the prescribed 20 days should only be done if symptoms of bloating or slow digestion persist, and under direct clinical supervision."
Next Steps
Lifestyle Integration: Focus on small, frequent meals and avoid lying down for at least 2 hours after eating. This naturally aids the 'prokinetic' effect without medication.
Monitor for New Symptoms: If you experience any breast tenderness or unusual discharge (rare side effects of Itopride), stop the medication and consult immediately.
Health Tips
while you feel better now, the goal is to get your stomach working on its own. Please book a consultation so we can evaluate your digestion and see if we can safely transition you to the maintenance dose of Sompraz without the prokinetic component."
