Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Ulpan D Tablet works by the combined action of its two ingredients, pantoprazole and domperidone.
Pantoprazole reduces the intake of certain ions in the stomach wall that are necessary for the production of digestive acids in the stomach, and hence leads to reduced acid production.
Domperidone is an antiemetic agent. It works by increasing the movement in the stomach and intestines so that acid does not flow back into the food pipe.
