Pan D Tablet is used primarily to treat conditions related to acid reflux and peptic ulcers, relieving symptoms such as heartburn and stomach pain.
Understanding Pan D Tablet
Pan D is a combination capsule containing two active ingredients:
- Pantoprazole (40 mg): A proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach.
- Domperidone (30 mg): A prokinetic agent that speeds up gastric emptying and reduces nausea or vomiting.
Uses of Pan D Tablet
Pan D Tablet is mainly prescribed for the following conditions:
- Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Also known as acid reflux, GERD occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus. Pan D helps reduce acid production and prevent reflux.
- Peptic Ulcers: These are sores that develop in the lining of the stomach, esophagus, or small intestine. Pan D aids in healing ulcers by reducing acid and protecting the lining.
How Pan D Tablet Works
The combination of pantoprazole and domperidone in Pan D Tablet provides a dual action:
- Acid Reduction: Pantoprazole reduces acid production in the stomach.
- Motility Improvement: Domperidone helps the stomach empty faster and prevents acid from flowing back into the esophagus.
