PAN 40 Tablet

PAN 40 Tablet is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It is commonly prescribed for acid-related disorders such as heartburn, acid reflux (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger–Ellison syndrome. By lowering excess stomach acid, it relieves discomfort and supports healing of the stomach and intestinal lining.

This medicine is also used to prevent stomach ulcers and acidity caused by the prolonged use of pain-relieving medicines. PAN 40 Tablet should ideally be taken on an empty stomach, one hour before a meal, preferably in the morning. Always take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor and continue the course even if symptoms improve quickly. Lifestyle measures—like eating smaller meals, avoiding tea, coffee, spicy or fatty foods—can enhance the medicine’s effectiveness.

Would you like me to also format it as a patient information leaflet (with easy icons like “Take Before Meals,” “Avoid Alcohol,” etc.)?
