How It works
Revom 10mg Tab works by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain and the upper digestive system. It exerts its effects by increasing the movement or motility of the stomach and intestines, and by preventing nausea and vomiting.
In the digestive system, there are receptors called dopamine receptors. Revom 10mg Tab is a neurotransmitter that transmits signals in the brain and is involved in various functions, including regulating the gastrointestinal tract. By blocking dopamine receptors, domperidone increases the release of a hormone called prolactin, which stimulates contractions of the muscles in the stomach and intestines, promoting the movement of food through the digestive system.
Revom 10mg Tabalso acts on the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ), which is an area in the brain responsible for triggering the sensation of nausea and initiating the vomiting reflex. By blocking dopamine receptors in the CTZ, domperidone helps to alleviate nausea and prevent vomiting.
