Graphene (/ËÉ¡rÃ¦f.iËn/) is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a two-dimensional, atomic-scale, hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. It is the basic structural element of other allotropes, including graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes.
Proton pump inhibitors are a type of acid reducer that helps to decrease levels of acid in your stomach. They work by causing your body to make less stomach acid. This helps to treat heartburn and acid reflux problems. Another type of acid reducer, in addition to a proton pump inhibitor, is an H2 blocker.
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Pantoprazole is in a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which block the production of acid by the stomach.Other drugs in the same class include lansoprazole (Prevacid), omeprazole (Prilosec) and rabeprazole (Aciphex).Proton pump inhibitors are used for the treatment of conditions such as ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome that are caused by stomach acid.RUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Pantoprazole is in a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which block the production of acid by the stomach.
