ASTEPAN-LS
Indication
Pantoprazole and Levosulpiride are medications commonly used in combination for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition more commonly known as acid reflux. GERD occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus). This backwash (acid reflux) can irritate the lining of your esophagus.
Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It effectively decreases stomach acidity, providing relief from the symptoms of acid reflux such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. By minimizing acid production, Pantoprazole also helps in healing acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, preventing ulcers, and may help prevent cancer of the esophagus.
Levosulpiride, on the other hand, is a prokinetic agent. It enhances gastrointestinal motility by blocking dopamine D2 receptors, which increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, facilitating the passage of food and preventing the reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus. This action complements the acid-reducing effects of Pantoprazole, providing a more comprehensive approach to managing GERD symptoms.
When used together, Pantoprazole and Levosulpiride offer a dual mechanism of action that effectively controls acid production and enhances gastrointestinal motility. This combination therapy is particularly beneficial for patients with severe or persistent symptoms of GERD, providing both symptomatic relief and promoting the healing of the esophageal lining.
Products such as Astepan LS capsules, which contain enteric coated Pantoprazole sodium and Levosulpiride SR capsules, are specifically designed for this purpose. Astepan LS capsules and Astepan LS capsule SR ensure the medication is released in a controlled manner for optimal effectiveness. There are variations available, such as Levosulpiride 75mg + Rabeprazole 40mg, but Astepan LS capsules remain a popular choice.
As with any medication, it is important to use this combination under the guidance of a healthcare professional to ensure optimal effectiveness and to manage any potential side effects. Regular follow-ups and adherence to prescribed doses are essential to achieving the best outcomes in GERD management.
