What is this medicine?

French reference leaflet: PANTOPRAZOLE ZF 20 mg, comprimé gastro-résistant. Confirm indications in Morocco with a pharmacist.

Pharmacotherapeutic class: Medicines against acidity disorders. Proton pump inhibitors - ATC code: A02BC02 PANTOPRAZOLE ZF contains an active substance, pantoprazole, which reduces the amount of acid produced in the stomach by blocking the "proton pump". PANTOPRAZOLE ZF is used for the short-term treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux symptoms (for example heartburn, acid regurgitation) in adults. Gastro-oesophageal reflux is the upward movement of acid from the stomach into the oesophagus, which can become inflammatory and painful. This situation can cause symptoms such as a burning sensation in the chest rising up to the throat (pyrosis) and a sour taste in the mouth (acid regurgitation). Acid reflux and heartburn may disappear after one day of treatment with PANTOPRAZOLE ZF. However, this medicine is not intended to provide immediate relief. It may be necessary to continue treatment for 2 or 3 consecutive days for the improvement of symptoms. You must consult your doctor if you feel no improvement or if you feel worse after 2 weeks.
