Pantocid IV Injection

Pantocid IV Injection is a medicine that reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is used to treat acid-related disorders of the stomach and intestines such as acid reflux, peptic ulcer disease, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It also helps prevent stress ulcers in critically ill patients and is given before anesthesia to reduce aspiration-related complications. This medicine belongs to a class called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and is administered intravenously by a healthcare professional. The dose and duration of treatment depend on your condition and response to therapy. Even if symptoms improve quickly, it is important to complete the prescribed course. Avoiding caffeinated, spicy, or fatty foods and eating smaller, more frequent meals can improve treatment outcomes.
