BIORIDE Tablets contain Levosulpiride, a gastrointestinal prokinetic medicine available in 25mg and 50mg strengths.

Levosulpiride is used to help manage certain digestive disorders associated with impaired gastrointestinal motility, including symptoms such as indigestion, bloating, early fullness, nausea and delayed gastric emptying. BIORIDE works primarily through dopamine D2 receptor antagonism and may help improve gastrointestinal movement. BIORIDE 25mg and 50mg tablets provide two strengths that may be prescribed according to the patient’s condition, symptoms and medical requirements. Levosulpiride is commonly used in the management of functional dyspepsia and other gastrointestinal motility-related conditions. The appropriate strength and treatment duration should always be determined by a qualified healthcare professional.

How It Works

Levosulpiride primarily acts as a dopamine D2 receptor antagonist and has prokinetic effects on the gastrointestinal tract. By influencing dopamine receptors involved in gastrointestinal function, it can help improve movement of stomach contents and support gastric emptying.

This prokinetic action may help reduce symptoms associated with delayed gastric emptying and functional dyspepsia, including feelings of fullness, bloating and upper abdominal discomfort.
