Composition Details
Pantoprazole 40mg
Description & Effects
SILpan-40 is an oral medication that contains Pantoprazole, a widely used proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of acid-related conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, acid reflux, heartburn, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. By inhibiting the acid-producing proton pumps in the stomach lining, Pantoprazole significantly reduces gastric acid secretion.This reduction in stomach acid helps relieve symptoms like burning sensation in the chest, sour belching, and stomach discomfort. It also promotes healing of acid-induced damage to the esophagus and stomach lining, making it highly effective in the management of erosive esophagitis and ulcers.
SILpan-40 is usually taken once daily before meals, preferably in the morning, to maximize its effectiveness. The tablet should be swallowed whole without crushing or chewing, to preserve its delayed-release action.
Most patients tolerate it well. Common side effects may include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, or flatulence. Long-term use should be monitored by a healthcare provider, as it may lead to vitamin B12 deficiency, low magnesium levels, or increased risk of bone fractures.
