∙ 13y agoWhat is the dissolution medium for rabeprazole and domperidone tablet as a combined dosage form?
An enteric coated tablet has a shell that prevents it from dissolving in the stomach. If chewed the shell will be broken and the medicine will encounter the stomach wall. Enteric coatings seek to prevent this because some medicines are harmful to the stomach but not to the small intestine where they are digested.
It is available as an enteric coated tablet, which does not break down until it reaches the intestine.
Because this would make the enteric coating coating useless and may upset the users stomach. An enteric coated tablet has a material that allows the tablet to pass through the stomach to the small intestine before the medication is released reducing the chance of stomach problems. Hope this helps. ~J
