Description

Uses:
Pentate-40 contains Pantoprazole 40 mg, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces excess stomach acid. It is commonly prescribed for:

• Treating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

• Healing and preventing stomach and duodenal ulcers

• Managing Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (excess acid production)

• Relieving symptoms like heartburn, acidity, and sour belching

• Preventing ulcer formation in patients taking NSAIDs for long periods

It works by blocking acid-producing pumps in the stomach lining, allowing healing and reducing irritation.
