Mosapride (Mosapride) is a prescription medication used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome, and indigestion. Acid reflux occurs when the stomach acid repeatedly flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach, causing heartburn. Many people suffer acid reflux from time to time. However, you need medical attention when you suffer acid reflux symptoms more than two times a week for about a month or longer. The active ingredient in Mosapride is Mosapride. Mosapride belongs to a class of drugs called gastroprokinetic agents. It works by increasing food movement from the stomach to the intestine. The drug speeds up the process of gastric emptying and prevents the reflux of food into the food pipe.
