Panum L Capsule is a combination of two drugs, namely: Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor) and Levosulpiride (prokinetic agent). Pantoprazole works by blocking the action of an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for the production of acid. Levosulpiride works by increasing the pressure of the inferior oesophageal (food pipe) sphincter, thereby prevents backflow of food and acid into the mouth. Together, Panum L Capsule helps in preventing acid reflux, thereby provides relief from acidity.
Diarrhoea might be a side-effect of Panum L Capsule . Drink enough fluids and eat non-spicy food if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you experience severe diarrhoea, consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.
Avoid lying down immediately after meals to prevent acid reflux. Raise the head of the bed 10-20cm by putting a pillow so that the head and chest are above the waist. This helps in preventing acid reflux.
Panum L Capsule contains pantoprazole which might increase the risk of osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). This mainly occurs in people taking higher doses of Panum L Capsule for longer durations. Your doctor may prescribe calcium and vitamin D supplements if you are at risk of osteoporosis.
Do not take Panum L Capsule for longer durations unless prescribed by the doctor. Talk to your doctor if you do not find symptomatic relief. The doctor may monitor your condition regularly if you are on long term treatment with Panum L Capsule .
Dry mouth could be a side-effect of Panum L Capsule . Limiting caffeine intake, avoiding smoking and mouthwashes containing alcohol, drinking water regularly, and chewing sugar-free gum/candy might help in stimulating saliva and thereby prevents drying of the mouth.
Alcohol
Unsafe
Avoid consumption of alcohol while taking Panum L Capsule . Alcohol intake leads to increased production of stomach acid, thereby increases acidity and heartburn.

About Panum L Capsule
Panum L Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called gastrointestinal agents used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acidity, indigestion, heartburn, and peptic ulcers. Gastroesophageal reflux disease occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus); this causes acidity and heartburn. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the inner lining of the intestine and stomach.
Panum L Capsule is a combination of two drugs, namely: Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor) and Levosulpiride (prokinetic agent). Pantoprazole works by blocking the action of an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for the production of acid. Levosulpiride works by increasing the pressure of the inferior oesophageal (food pipe) sphincter, thereby prevents backflow of food and acid into the mouth. Together, Panum L Capsule helps in preventing acid reflux, thereby provides relief from acidity and heartburn.
Take Panum L Capsule 1hour prior food. Swallow Panum L Capsule as a whole with a glass of water; do not chew, or break it. You are advised to take Panum L Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as headache, nausea, vomiting, gas, dry mouth, dizziness and diarrhoea. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
Inform your doctor before taking Panum L Capsule if you have a history of gastrointestinal bleeding or intestinal obstruction. On long-term treatment, Panum L Capsule may cause osteoporosis and hypomagnesemia (low magnesium levels). Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Panum L Capsule may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Panum L Capsule should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Panum L Capsule as it could lead to increased drowsiness and can elevate the production of stomach acid.
