Description
Pantop 40 Tablet is a medication used to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It treats acid-related illnesses of the stomach and intestine, such as heartburn, acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Pantop 40 provides relief from the symptoms and promotes healing. It contains pantoprazole as an active ingredient. Pantoprazole binds with the proton pump in stomach cells, which blocks acid secretion and helps to treat hyperacidity.
Pantocid 40mg tablet, Pan 40mg tablet, Pp 40 Mg tablet, Ipp 40 Mg tablet, and Pota 40mg tablet also include pantoprazole. This medicine should be taken as directed by the doctor and in doses and duration as prescribed. It should be taken on an empty stomach as prescribed. It would be best if you took this medicine as prescribed. Do not miss any dose or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
Along with taking medicine on time, certain lifestyle modifications can help you manage your acidity problem better. Try eating smaller meals, eating slowly to avoid overeating, and lying down immediately after having a meal. Limit your intake of alcohol, avoid smoking, and maintain a healthy weight; consult the doctor to understand what works best for you.
