Sompraz L Capsule SR

Sompraz L Capsule SR is a prescription medicine given for managing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition commonly known as acid reflux. By lowering the production of excess stomach acid, it helps relieve problems such as heartburn, indigestion, irritation, and pain in the stomach.

The capsule is usually taken before food, at a time suggested by your doctor. The dose and duration depend on the severity of your condition and how your body responds to treatment. Stopping it too early may cause your symptoms to return, so it’s important to complete the prescribed course. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medicines you are taking, as interactions may occur.

Some people may experience mild side effects including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, headache, stomach pain, flatulence, or drowsiness. These effects are often temporary, but you should contact your doctor if they continue or cause concern. Staying hydrated, eating fiber-rich foods, and making small lifestyle changes—like avoiding spicy food, tea, coffee, chocolate, and eating smaller meals—can improve results. Alcohol should be avoided since it may worsen drowsiness and acidity.

Let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding before starting this medicine. People with liver or kidney conditions should use it cautiously and may require adjusted doses.

Sompraz L Capsule SR is a combination of two active substances, esomeprazole and levosulpiride. Together they reduce acid secretion and improve stomach motility, which provides better relief from reflux symptoms.

If you forget to take a dose, have it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is close, skip the missed one and continue with your usual schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time.
