About Laciloc D Capsule

Laciloc D Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called gastrointestinal agents used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcers. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the inner lining of the intestine and stomach.

Laciloc D Capsule is a combination of two drugs: Lafutidine (H2 receptor antagonist) and Domperidone (a dopamine antagonist). Lafutidine works by blocking histamine H2 receptors located on the stomach lining, thereby reduces gastric acid secretion. Domperidone works by increasing the movements and contractions of stomach muscles. 

You are advised to take Laciloc D Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects, such as nausea, diarrhoea, dryness in the mouth, headache, drowsiness, dizziness, increased liver enzymes, and increased uric acid level in the blood. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Inform your doctor before taking Laciloc D Capsule if you have a history of gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, liver disease, kidney disease. Do not take Laciloc D Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by the doctor. Laciloc D Capsule may cause sleepiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Laciloc D Capsule should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Laciloc D Capsule as it could lead to increased drowsiness and can elevate the production of stomach acid. Keep your doctor informed about all the medicines and your health condition to rule out any side-effects.
