Pantoprazole Tablets

Pantoprazole can be used as an anti-ulcer medication. It is classified as a PPI (proton pump inhibitor) which prevents excess acid from being produced in the stomach. PPI drugs can be used to treat ulcers, GERD and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome. Pantoprazole, like other PPI drugs, works by blocking enzymes in the stomach walls that produce acid. These enzymes are effectively blocked, reducing acid production and allowing the stomach and oesophagus to heal themselves.

Pantoprazole, a PPI medication, works to stop the production of acid in the stomach. It reduces acidity in the stomach and helps to prevent symptoms such as GERD (gastro-oesophagal reflux disorder) or other painful conditions.

Pantoprazole can be taken with or without food. Follow the instructions of your pharmacist, nurse, or prescriber. For best results, Pantoprazole should be taken at the same time each day.

You should not chew, break, chew, or crush Pantoprazole tablets. The exact dosage of the liquid suspension should be followed. Ask a physician or medical professional to administer the IV suspension.

Pantoprazole oral tablets are available in strengths ranging from 20-40 mg. You should follow the advice of your doctor regarding the dosage required for the treatment of stomach ulcers, GERD and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome. Use the prescribed dose and not less. Before you take any medication, consult your doctor.

Patients with duodenal ulcers should take 15 mg daily for the next four weeks.

Patients with GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) should take 15 mg every day for the next eight weeks.

Patients who plan to use Pantoprazoletablet long-term for GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disorder) or Duodenal Ulcer should take one 15 mg Pantoprazole tablet daily for eight weeks.

Patients aged 18 and over who wish to treat severe oesophagitis or gastric ulcer should take 30 mg of the recommended dosage for a period of 4-8 weeks.

Patients aged 18 and over who want to treat their Zollinger–Ellison Syndrome should take 60 mg per day.

The patient's response to the medication will determine the dosage.

Talk to your doctor if your medical condition doesn't improve or becomes worse after taking Pantoprazole. You should never stop taking Pantoprazole without first talking to your doctor.
