Pantoprazole Intravenous and Tritane

• Generic Name: pantoprazole
• Dosage Forms: n.a.
• Other Brand Names: Protonix, Protonix IV

Pantoprazole injection is used to treat certain conditions in which there is too much acid in the stomach. It is used for short-term treatment (7 to 10 days) of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with a history of erosive esophagitis. GERD is a condition in which the acid in the stomach washes back up into the esophagus. Pantoprazole may also be used to treat Zollinger-Ellison syndrome or other conditions (eg, cancer) in which the stomach produces too much acid.

Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It works by decreasing the amount of acid produced by the stomach.

Pantoprazole is given only by or under the direct supervision of your doctor.
