Expert Advice

• For optimal effects, take the pill on an empty stomach.
• Don't drink alcohol, smoke, eat spicy foods, or eat late at night because these things make acidity worse.
• If you use it for a long time, it may lower your levels of Vitamin B12 and magnesium, so keep an eye on them.
• If you have hormonal problems, breast lumps, epilepsy, or mental health issues, tell your doctor because Levosulpiride may affect them.
• If you feel dizzy after taking the drug, don't drive.
• Don't take any other antacids at the same time (leave at least one to two hours between doses).

 How It Works

• Pantoprazole:
• A proton pump blocker (PPI)
• Decreases too much stomach acid
• Helps ulcers heal and eases heartburn and acidity.
• Levosulpiride:
• A drug that makes things move
• Makes the stomach and intestines move more
• Helps food go through your body fast
• Helps with nausea, bloating, indigestion, and reflux.
• They work together to relieve acidity, indigestion, and delayed stomach emptying.

Medicine Interaction

• Be careful when using with:
• Antidepressants and antipsychotics raise the risk of movement problems.
• Warfarin, a blood thinner, changed the INR.
• Antibiotics like clarithromycin made Levosulpiride work better.
• Antacids lower absorption (wait 1–2 hours).
• Antiarrhythmic medications – potential for arrhythmia
• Dopamine agonists, like Levodopa, work less well.
• Always tell your doctor about all the drugs you are taking.

• Take it at least 30 minutes before meals, preferably before breakfast.
• Do not crush or chew; just swallow it whole with water. It is sustained-release.
