Pantoprazole + Itopride Uses

Pantoprazole+Itopride is used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) and peptic ulcer disease.

How Pantoprazole + Itopride works

Pantoprazole + Itopride is a combination of two medicines: Pantoprazole and Itopride. 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 heartburn. Itopride is a prokinetic which works on the region in the brain that controls vomiting. It also acts on the upper digestive tract to increase the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach.
