How Does Pantoprazole (Pantodid 40) 40 mg  Work?

Pantoprazole is a benzimidazole gastric antisecretory agent, also known as proton pump inhibitor (PPI), that exerts its effect by blocking the final step in gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of H+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) enzyme system present on the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell. Both basal and stimulated acid are inhibited.

Uses 

Pantoprazole is used  to treat the following conditions:

  • Gastro-esophageal reflux disease 
  • Peptic ulcer
  • Prophylaxis of NSAID-induced ulcers 
  • Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

Special Precautions and Connected Warnings

Take special precautions if you have the following conditions:

  • Patient with gastric malignancy
  • Risk factors for reduced vitamin B12 absorption or at risk for osteoporosis
  • Hepatic impairment
  • Pregnancy and lactation

It may be helpful to discuss your diet with your doctor or dietitian. A change in diet may help improve your symptoms. For example, spicy food tends to worsen reflux and should be avoided. Likewise, carbonated (“fizzy”) drinks such as soft drinks should also be avoided.

You should also try to avoid lying down soon after eating as this will worsen the reflux symptoms.

Avoid alcohol.

Storage Conditions

  • Store between 20-25°C.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from the reach of children.
  • Do not use Pantoprazole that is expired or out of date.
