Pharmacodynamics: Pantoprazole is a PPI that suppresses the final step in gastric acid production by covalently binding to the (H+, K+)-ATPase enzyme system at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell. This effect leads to inhibition of both basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion, irrespective of the stimulus. Domperidone is both an anti-emetic and prokinetic agent. Domperidone is a peripheral and CRTZ dopamine receptor antagonist. It appears to be a better anti-emetic than prokinetic agent, having weak effects on Gl motility.
Indications: PANTOPET is used to prevent and treat stomach ulcers and gastric acid related diseases in dogs and cats such as gastric and duodenal ulcers, gastrinoma and mast cell neoplasia. The duration of treatment is once a day for up to 8 weeks. Domperidone is a prokinetic drug in dogs and cats by stimulating the motility of the upper GI tract. Domperidone can be used to stimulate lactation in dogs and cats.
