How it Works

How Levosulpiride and Rabeprazole Work Levosulpiride is a prokinetic agent that increases the release of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger. This enhances the movement of the stomach and intestines and prevents reflux, which is the backward flow of acid into the esophagus. Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach, providing relief from acid-related indigestion and ulcers.
