What is Pantoprazole?

Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat conditions where the stomach produces too much acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acid reflux, and ulcers. It helps relieve symptoms and promote healing by reducing the amount of acid your stomach produces.

Description

How does Pantoprazole Work?

Pantoprazole works by blocking the enzyme in the stomach wall that produces acid. By reducing acid production, it helps to alleviate symptoms such as heartburn, regurgitation, and difficulty swallowing. It also aids in healing and preventing damage to the esophagus caused by acid reflux.
