How Levosulpiride + Pantoprazole works

Levosulpiride + Pantoprazole is a combination of two medicines: Levosulpiride and Pantoprazole.

This increases the movement of stomach and intestines, and prevents reflux (acid going up to the food pipe). Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach which helps in the relief of acid-related indigestion and ulcers.
