Pantoprazole 40mg tablets are a widely used medication in India for conditions related to excessive stomach acid. It belongs to a class of drugs called Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).

By inhibiting these pumps, pantoprazole significantly reduces the amount of acid secreted into the stomach. This helps in healing acid-related damage and relieving symptoms.
