Flopan-IT Capsule 10's

Question 1

How does Flopan-IT Capsule 10's work?

Accepted Answer

Flopan-IT Capsule 10's is a combination of two drugs, namely: Pantoprazole and Itopride. Pantoprazole works by blocking the action of an enzyme called gastric proton pump, responsible for the production of acid. Itopride works by accelerating gastric emptying and improves gastric sensitivity and tension. Together, Flopan-IT Capsule 10's helps in preventing acid reflux, thereby provides relief from acidity.
