Pantocid L Capsule is a combination medication used primarily to treat acid reflux, gastritis, and peptic ulcers by reducing stomach acid and improving gastrointestinal motility.

Composition

Each capsule typically contains:

  • Pantoprazole (a proton pump inhibitor) – helps reduce stomach acid production.

Uses

  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

  • Gastric and duodenal ulcers

  • Dyspepsia (indigestion)

  • Acid reflux with bloating and discomfort

How it Works

  • Pantoprazole decreases acid secretion in the stomach.

  • Levosulpiride increases contraction of the stomach and intestines, helping with faster emptying and reducing reflux.

Dosage

  • Usually taken once daily, before meals, as directed by your doctor.

Side Effects

  • Nausea

  • Headache

  • Diarrhea or constipation

  • Dizziness

  • Rare: Hormonal imbalance with long-term use of Levosulpiride

Product introduction

Pantocid L Capsule SR is a medicine used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) by relieving the symptoms of acidity, such as heartburn, stomach pain, or irritation. It also neutralizes the acid and promotes easy passage of gas to reduce stomach discomfort.

You should keep taking this medicine for as long as your doctor recommends. If you stop treatment too early, your symptoms may come back, and your condition may worsen. Let your doctor know about all other medications you are taking, as some may affect, or be affected by, this medicine.

The most common side effects are stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, fever, nausea, rash, and flatulence. Most of these are temporary and usually resolve with time. Contact your doctor straight away if you are at all concerned about any of these side effects. This medicine may cause dizziness, so do not drive or do anything that requires mental focus until you know how this medicine affects you. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medicine, as it can worsen your dizziness. Lifestyle modifications like having cold milk and avoiding hot tea, coffee, spicy food, or chocolate can help you get better results.

Before you start taking this medicine, it is important to inform your doctor if you are suffering from kidney disease. You should also tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

TREATMENT OF GASTRO RELIEF

Benefits of Pantocid L Capsule SR

In Treatment of Gastroesophageal reflux disease (Acid reflux)

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic (long-term) condition which is like having heartburn consistently rather than just occasionally. It happens because a muscle above your stomach relaxes too much and allows stomach contents to come back up into your oesophagus and mouth. Pantocid L Capsule SR reduces the amount of acid your stomach makes and relieves the pain associated with heartburn and acid reflux. You should take it exactly as it is prescribed for it to be effective.

Some simple lifestyle changes can help reduce the symptoms of GERD. Think about what foods trigger heartburn and try to avoid them; eat smaller, more frequent meals; try to lose weight if you are overweight and try to find ways to relax. Do not eat within 3-4 hours of going to bed.

How Pantocid L Capsule SR works

Levosulpiride is a prokinetic that works by increasing the release of acetylcholine (a chemical messenger). This increases the movement of the stomach and intestines and prevents reflux (acid going up to the food pipe). Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach, which helps in the relief of acid-related indigestion and ulcers.
