Zotop IT 40mg/150mg Capsule SR is a medicine used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) and functional dyspepsia (indigestion). It relieves the symptoms of acidity such as heartburn, stomach pain, or irritation. Zotop IT 40mg/150mg Capsule SR is a combination of two medicines: Pantoprazole and Itopride. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach, which helps in the relief of acid-related indigestion and heartburn. Itopride is a prokinetic that works on the region in the brain that controls vomiting and also acts on the upper digestive tract to increase the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach.
