About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Novaprazole Tablet, containing 40mg of Pantoprazole, is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) indicated for the treatment of various gastric and duodenal ulcers, erosive esophagitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Pantoprazole reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the hydrogen-potassium-ATPase enzyme system (proton pumps) in the stomach parietal cells. The tablet is available in an enteric-coated form to minimize gastric irritation and ensure optimal absorption. Novaprazole is contraindicated in patients hypersensitive to Pantoprazole or similar drugs, and caution should be exercised in patients with liver dysfunction. Proton pump inhibitors like Novaprazole may increase the risk of bone fractures of the hip, wrist, and spine with long-term use, especially in the elderly. Patients should consult their healthcare provider regarding appropriate dosage and duration of treatment.

About Pantoprazole
Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat conditions associated with excessive stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It works by irreversibly inhibiting the gastric proton pump, thereby reducing gastric acid secretion and promoting healing of the esophagus and stomach lining. Pantoprazole is essential for managing acid-related disorders and providing symptomatic relief. In summary, Pantoprazole is a critical medication for treating acid-related gastrointestinal conditions.
How It Works
Pantoprazole irreversibly inhibits the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme in gastric parietal cells, leading to decreased gastric acid secretion.
