Cocid D Capsule 10

COCID D Capsule is used for managing gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where acid from the stomach flows back into the food pipe causing discomfort, and providing relief from Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.

Uses of Cocid D Capsule 10 are:

• GERD: Manages symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease.
• Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome: Provides relief from excessive stomach acid production in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew it.
• Take the medicine around the same time every day for best results.
• It is crucial not to exceed the recommended dose without consulting your doctor.
• Do not suddenly stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor first.

Cocid D Capsule 10 is taken orally.

Cocid D Capsule 10 comprises two active ingredients:

• Domperidone (10 mg): Domperidone is a D2 receptor antagonist. It blocks dopamine receptors in the gastrointestinal tract. Blocking these receptors helps reduce symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and digestive discomfort associated with gastrointestinal disorders.
• Pantoprazole (20 mg): It is a proton pump inhibitor that works by reducing the production of stomach acid. It does so by blocking an enzyme in the wall of the stomach that produces acid. This action helps prevent damage to the stomach lining caused by acid, relieving symptoms like heartburn and difficulty swallowing.

• Store Cocid D Capsule 10 in its original package to safeguard it from light and moisture.
• Keep it below the temperature of 30°C for storage.
• Keep the medicine out of the reach of children.
• Always check the expiry date before taking the capsule.

• Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like Pantoprazole may be associated with a risk of decreased calcium absorption. Ensure an adequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, either through diet or supplements, under the guidance of your doctor.
• Eat smaller, frequent meals instead of large meals. It helps reduce the amount of food in the stomach, decreasing the likelihood of acid reflux.
• This combination is typically recommended for short-term use to manage GERD symptoms. The prolonged use of this medicine should not be done without consulting a doctor.
