Heartburn and acid regurgitation can significantly disrupt your daily routine and cause an unpleasant feeling in the chest and throat. These symptoms occur when stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus, which often leads to irritation and a bitter taste. Sandoz Pantoprazole 20mg offers effective support by inhibiting the production of stomach acid at the source, so your body gets the rest it needs to recover.
- Targeted action by blocking the stomach acid pump, which immediately reduces the amount of acid in the stomach.
- Long-lasting relief from reflux symptoms such as a painful burning sensation and acid regurgitation.
- Gastro-resistant tablets that ensure the active substance is only released in the intestines for optimal absorption.
- Simple dosage of just one tablet per day for user-friendly support of your well-being.
How it works
The active substance pantoprazole belongs to the group of proton pump inhibitors. This substance works by temporarily deactivating the enzymes in the stomach lining responsible for the secretion of acids. Although relief is often noticeable after the first day, the product is designed to stabilise the acid balance over a period of several days. This helps protect the oesophagus against the effects of stomach acid.
