Uses of Pantocid D Capsule

Pantocid D Capsule is used to treat digestive conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), heartburn caused by excess stomach acid, inflammation of the food pipe (esophagitis), and peptic ulcers.

Benefits of Pantocid D Capsule

This medication combines Pantoprazole and Domperidone to effectively relieve symptoms like heartburn, indigestion, bloating, nausea, and vomiting by addressing both acid production and digestive motility.

How Pantoprazole Works

Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid production by blocking the enzyme responsible for acid secretion, helping to protect the stomach and esophagus lining.

How Domperidone Works

Domperidone is a prokinetic agent that speeds up stomach emptying and improves digestive tract movement, which helps reduce feelings of fullness, bloating, and nausea by blocking the brain’s vomiting center.

Important Considerations

• Take Pantocid D Capsule 30 minutes before meals as prescribed.
• Possible side effects include diarrhea, stomach pain, gas, dry mouth, dizziness, and headache.
• Long-term use of Pantoprazole may require monitoring of vitamin B12 and magnesium levels.
• Avoid if allergic to ingredients or if you have lupus.
• Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and report any discomfort.
