Luganor (Pantoprazole) 40 mg Lyophilized Powder for IV Injection 1 Vial

Luganor contains Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) provided as a sterile lyophilized powder for solution. This medicine helps manage gastric acid by reducing its secretion regardless of the type of stimulation. It offers an alternative route of administration for patients who are unable to take oral forms. It is used in clinical settings to help address acid-related conditions such as ulcers and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, supporting a balanced gastric environment.
