It also increases the upper gastrointestinal tract's motility and helps decrease stomach emptying time. The most common side effect of this medicine is dry mouth. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About Somcapsule D Capsule
Somcapsule D Capsule is used to treat nausea (feeling sick) and vomiting (being sick) in adults and adolescents 12 years or older. Besides this, it also helps in the treatment of indigestion. Nausea and vomiting are not diseases but are symptoms of many conditions like infections, motion sickness, an early stage of pregnancy, and gastroparesis (slow stomach emptying).
Somcapsule D Capsule contains domperidone, which prevents nausea and vomiting symptoms by blocking certain receptors (like dopamine and serotonin) that stimulate the vomiting centre (chemoreceptor trigger zone – CTZ) located in the brain. It also acts as a prokinetic agent that increases the upper gastrointestinal tract's motility and helps decrease stomach emptying time.
Take Somcapsule D Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. Symptoms of nausea and vomiting may usually resolve within 3-4 days after taking Somcapsule D Capsule. However, if it does not resolve even after this, stop taking this medicine and contact the doctor. Do not take Somcapsule D Capsule for longer than seven days.
