Pantop-DSR
Pantop-D SR Capsule is a prescription medicine used to treat acid-related stomach conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive esophagitis, gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and indigestion. It helps relieve symptoms like heartburn, bloating, nausea, regurgitation, and upper abdominal discomfort by reducing excess stomach acid and improving stomach movement.
Pantop-D SR Capsule should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily before breakfast. Swallow the capsule whole with water and do not crush or chew it. For best results, follow a healthy diet, avoid spicy, oily, or late-night meals, limit caffeine, and avoid smoking or alcohol. Do not skip doses or stop the medicine early, even if symptoms improve, as this may cause symptoms to return.
The most common side effect of Pantop-D SR Capsule is dryness of mouth. Some people may also experience headache, dizziness, diarrhea, nausea, or mild stomach discomfort. These side effects are usually temporary. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe diarrhea, persistent vomiting, irregular heartbeat, or skin rash. Drinking enough water and taking the medicine before meals may help reduce stomach-related discomfort.
Before starting Pantop-D SR Capsule, inform your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or heart problems. Avoid using this medicine if you have a history of gastrointestinal bleeding, obstruction, or allergy to any of its ingredients. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Do not take Pantop-D SR Capsule with medicines that may affect heart rhythm or interact with domperidone or pantoprazole.

Benefits of Pantop-D SR Capsule
In Acid Reflux (GERD):
Pantop-D SR Capsule reduces excess stomach acid and prevents it from flowing back into the food pipe. This helps relieve heartburn, irritation, and discomfort, allowing you to eat and sleep more comfortably with regular use.
In Erosive Esophagitis:
The medicine helps heal inflammation and damage in the food pipe caused by repeated acid exposure. It relieves pain, burning sensation, and difficulty swallowing, supporting recovery of the esophagus.
In Gastritis and Ulcer Conditions:
Pantop-D SR Capsule reduces stomach acid and allows the stomach lining to heal. It helps relieve pain, bloating, nausea, and discomfort associated with gastritis and gastric or duodenal ulcers, and helps prevent recurrence when used regularly.

It helps relieve symptoms such as bloating, nausea, vomiting, upper abdominal discomfort, and a feeling of fullness after meals by controlling acid production and improving stomach emptying.

How Pantop-D SR Capsule Works
Pantop-D SR Capsule contains two medicines: domperidone and pantoprazole. Domperidone improves stomach and intestinal movement, helping food pass easily through the digestive tract. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid production, relieving acid-related symptoms and promoting healing.
