REBIFAST 40 DSR CAPSULES is a combination of two medicines: Domperidone and Rabeprazole.

Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) which works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach which helps in the relief of acid-related indigestion and heartburn.
Iron transports oxygen throughout the body and maintains red blood cells, thus making an individual feel energetic and preventing anemia.
