Pantozol 40mg is a prescription medication containing pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate as the active ingredient. It comes in a pack of 15 gastro-resistant tablets for oral use. This medication belongs to the class of proton pump inhibitors used to reduce stomach acid production. Pantozol tablets are gastro-resistant, meaning they have a special coating that prevents them from being broken down by stomach acid before reaching the intestine where they can be properly absorbed. The medication is typically prescribed for conditions related to excess stomach acid production such as gastric ulcers, reflux esophagitis, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The tablets should be swallowed whole with water before a meal. This medication requires a prescription and should only be taken under medical supervision.
