Pantoprazole 40 mg EC 15 tablets

Product Description:

• Pantoprazole belongs to a family of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors, which work to reduce the amount of acid produced in the stomach.

Mechanism of action of pantoprazole:

• Pantoprazole accumulates in the acidic part of the parietal cells of the stomach, where it is converted into its active form, which binds to and inhibits the action of the enzyme known as hydrogen potassium ATPase, or the proton pump, which leads to stopping the final stage of stomach acid production; thus, the process of acid secretion in the stomach stops in its natural or stimulated form (as a result of a certain disease).
