Pan-L Capsule SR

Product Overview
Pan-L Capsule SR is used to manage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), commonly known as acid reflux. It helps alleviate symptoms such as heartburn, stomach irritation, and discomfort by neutralizing stomach acid and promoting the easy passage of gas to reduce bloating and pain.

Usage Instructions
This medication can be taken with or without food, according to your doctor’s directions. The dose depends on your specific condition and how you respond to the treatment. It’s important to continue the medication for the entire period prescribed by your healthcare provider. Stopping the medication prematurely may cause your symptoms to return or worsen. Always inform your doctor about any other medicines you are taking, as they may interact with Pan-L Capsule SR.

Possible Side Effects
Common side effects include stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, fever, nausea, rash, flatulence, dizziness, and joint pain. Most side effects are temporary and tend to improve as your body adjusts to the medication. If you experience severe or persistent symptoms, contact your doctor promptly. Because this medication may cause dizziness, avoid driving or operating machinery until you understand how it affects you. Also, avoid alcohol during treatment, as it can increase dizziness. Lifestyle adjustments such as drinking cold milk and avoiding hot beverages, spicy foods, or chocolate can improve treatment outcomes.

Precautions
Before starting Pan-L Capsule SR, inform your doctor if you have kidney disease, are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Your doctor will decide if this medication is appropriate for you based on your medical history.

Indications

• Treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

• Relief from heartburn and acid reflux symptoms

How It Works
Pan-L Capsule SR contains two active ingredients: Levosulpiride and Pantoprazole. Levosulpiride enhances gastrointestinal motility by increasing acetylcholine release, which promotes movement in the stomach and intestines, preventing acid reflux. Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, reduces stomach acid production, helping relieve acid-related discomfort and promoting healing.

Recommended Lifestyle Changes
To support treatment, avoid foods that trigger heartburn, eat smaller and more frequent meals, maintain a healthy weight, and avoid eating 3-4 hours before bedtime.
