Treats indigestion, bloating and early satiety in functional dyspepsia

ACOGUT 100MG exerts its gastroprokinetic effects by enhancing the release of acetylcholine in the enteric nervous system via inhibition of presynaptic M1 and M2 muscarinic receptor and acetylcholine-esterase activity, which results in enhanced gastric motility and smooth muscle contraction.
