About Regasta tablet 50mg

• Functional dyspepsia (indigestion)

Drug Class

What Experts Say

Itopride speeds up stomach emptying and reduces nausea signals, easing the bloating, fullness and discomfort that come with slow digestion.

It is usually taken before meals, three times a day, so it is active as food enters the stomach, and many people notice less bloating within days.

It is generally well tolerated, with diarrhea and mild stomach upset being the most common effects. It should be avoided where increased gut movement could be harmful, such as bowel obstruction or active bleeding.
