Esomac L capsule is a combination of esomeprazole and levosulpiride. Esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, reduces stomach acid, relieving heartburn symptoms and promoting esophageal healing. Levosulpiride, an antipsychotic and prokinetic agent, affects dopamine receptors. Together, they lower acid production, aiding healing and preventing damage in the esophagus.
