Medicinal Benefits

Nepdone Tablet 10's is a combination of naproxen and domperidone. Naproxen is an anti-inflammatory (reduce inflammation) and analgesic (reduce pain) agent. It inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing pain and inflammation. Domperidone acts by enhancing gastric peristalsis (movements) to empty stomach. Easy movement of food through the stomach helps in relieving nausea and vomiting. It blocks the dopamine receptors present at the chemoreceptor trigger zone (responsible for regulating nausea and vomiting).
