Product Information

• Name: Pantoprazole sulfone N-oxide
• Synonyms: 6-(Difluoromethoxy)-2-[[(3,4-dimethoxy-1-oxido-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfonyl]-1H-benzimidazole
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Pantoprazole sulfone N-oxide is a prodrug that is converted to the active form pantoprazole in the stomach where it inhibits gastric acid secretion. Pantoprazole sulfone N-oxide has been shown to be genotoxic, and can cause polyvinyl chloride to degrade when stored together. Reconstituted solution of this drug should be used within 24 hours after reconstitution, as the chemical stability of this drug decreases rapidly. Validation studies have been conducted on different analytical methods for determining pantoprazole concentrations in reconstituted solutions, and these methods have been harmonized with those published by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). The pump inhibitor activity of pantoprazole sulfone N-oxide has been demonstrated in dogs, and it is also useful for treating acid reflux disease in humans. Pantoprazole sulfone N-oxide is unstable at high temperatures (>25°C), so should not be refrigerated or
