Introduction to Zepoxin 40mg Injection

Zepoxin 40mg Injection contains Pantoprazole as an active ingredient. It is used to treat reflux oesophagitis (inflammation of the tube connecting the throat to your stomach caused by reflux of acid from the stomach), stomach, and duodenal ulcers. It is also used to treat Zollinger-Ellison-Syndrome (tumors form in the Pantinumcreas or duodenum, leading to too much production of stomach acid). Talk to your physician if you have severe liver problems, if you are taking atazanavir (treats HIV infection), or due to have a specific blood test (chromogranin A).

Long-term acid exposure can cause damage to the esophagus, leading to conditions such as Barrett’s esophagus, which can increase the risk of developing esophageal cancer. By reducing the amount of acid in the stomach, Zepoxin 40mg Injection can help to prevent this damage. Zepoxin 40mg Injection is not recommended for adolescents and children under 18. Administration of this medicine for a long duration may lead to low magnesium levels in the blood. This may cause tiredness, convulsions, increased heart rate, or muscle contractions. Report to your physician if you experience any of these symptoms.
