Product Overview

Pantop LS Capsule SR is a medication used to treat acid reflux (gastroesophageal reflux disease) and related digestive issues. It helps alleviate symptoms like heartburn, stomach discomfort, irritation, and bloating. The medicine works by reducing stomach acid and promoting the easy release of gas, which helps in relieving discomfort.

This capsule can be taken with or without food as directed by your doctor. The dosage and treatment period depend on your medical condition and how you respond to the therapy. It is important to follow the prescribed regimen and continue the medication as long as recommended, even if you start feeling better. Stopping the treatment early may lead to a return or worsening of symptoms. Inform your doctor about any other medications you are using, as they may interact with this treatment.

Common side effects include stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, fever, nausea, rashes, and bloating. These effects are usually mild and temporary, but you should contact your doctor if they persist or cause discomfort. This medicine may cause dizziness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you understand how it affects you. Alcohol should be avoided as it may increase dizziness and sleepiness. Lifestyle changes like drinking cold milk and avoiding spicy foods, caffeine, and chocolate may improve treatment outcomes.

Benefits of Pantop LS Capsule SR

Pantop LS Capsule SR is helpful in managing GERD, a condition where acid from the stomach frequently flows back into the esophagus. This leads to persistent heartburn and indigestion. The capsule lowers stomach acid levels and helps reduce pain and discomfort. It is essential to take this medicine exactly as prescribed for it to be effective.

Making simple lifestyle adjustments can further help control symptoms. Identify and avoid foods that trigger heartburn, eat smaller meals more often, maintain a healthy weight, and try stress-reducing techniques. Avoid eating within 3–4 hours before bedtime for better symptom control.

How Pantop LS Capsule SR Works

This medication combines Levosulpiride and Pantoprazole to treat acid reflux and indigestion.

Levosulpiride is a prokinetic that increases stomach and intestinal movement by enhancing acetylcholine release, helping prevent acid from flowing back into the esophagus.

Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that decreases stomach acid production, reducing irritation and improving digestion.

Together, they provide comprehensive relief from acid-related symptoms.
