Pantoprazole Sodium IP 40 mg [Gastro-Resistant] + Domperidone IP 30 mg [Prolonged Release] is a combination pharmaceutical formulation developed for the management of acid-related gastrointestinal conditions accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and impaired gastric motility. The formulation combines effective gastric acid suppression with gastrointestinal motility support to provide comprehensive symptomatic relief under medical supervision.
Pantoprazole Sodium belongs to the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) class and works by reducing excessive gastric acid production in the stomach. By inhibiting the proton pumps responsible for the final stage of acid secretion, it helps relieve acidity, heartburn, and acid reflux while supporting the healing of acid-related irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.
Domperidone is a gastrointestinal prokinetic and antiemetic agent. It helps improve gastric motility and supports the movement of food through the digestive tract. It also helps manage nausea and vomiting associated with certain gastrointestinal conditions, complementing the acid-reducing action of Pantoprazole.
The combination provides a dual-action approach by addressing both excessive gastric acid production and gastrointestinal motility-related symptoms. The gastro-resistant form of Pantoprazole helps protect the active ingredient from degradation by stomach acid, while the prolonged-release form of Domperidone is designed to provide sustained drug release.
