WHAT CONTROLOC CONTROL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
CONTROLOC Control contains the active substance pantoprazole, which
blocks the ‘pump’ that
produces stomach acid. Hence it reduces the amount of acid in your
stomach.
CONTROLOC Control is used for the short-term treatment of reflux
symptoms (for example
heartburn, acid regurgitation) in adults.
Reflux is the backflow of acid from the stomach into the gullet
(“foodpipe”), which may become
inflamed and painful. This may cause you symptoms such as a painful
burning sensation in the chest
rising up to the throat (heartburn) and a sour taste in the mouth
(acid regurgitation).
You may experience relief from your acid reflux and heartburn symptoms
after just one day of
treatment with CONTROLOC Control, but this medicine is not meant to
bring immediate relief. It
may be necessary to take the tablets for 2-3 consecutive days to
relieve the symptoms.
