PAN 20 Tablet: Detailed Description

PAN 20 Tablet is a medication containing Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production. It is primarily used to treat acid-related stomach and esophageal conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and erosive esophagitis. By reducing stomach acid, it helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn and prevents damage to the esophagus.
