Pentab Dsr Strip Of 10 Capsules Description
Pentab Dsr Capsule is an anti-reflux medicine, containing a combination of pantoprazole, domperidone as its active ingredient. It is used to treat GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease). GERD is a co
ndition where acid from the stomach flows back to the food pipe. This backflow of acid irritates the lining of the food pipe and leads to chest pain and heartburn. This combination is used in patients in which pantoprazole alone is not able to control acid reflux. Pentab Dsr Capsule should be taken as directed by the doctor and in the correct doses and for the exact duration as prescribed. It should be taken preferably 30 mins before meals. Before using this medicine, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or are breastfeeding and about your detailed medical history.
