Prodep 20 can irritate the stomach and worsen gastritis, which may explain why you still experience indigestion and gastric pain despite taking Pan-D once daily. You should consult your doctor, as your treatment may need adjustment, additional stomach-protective measures, or a different antidepressant that is less likely to irritate the stomach.

Relationship Between Fluoxetine and Gastritis
- Fluoxetine (Prodep 20) can irritate the stomach lining, potentially worsening gastritis. Monitor gastrointestinal side effects closely.
Reasons for Persistent Indigestion and Gastric Pain Despite Pan-D
- Pan-D (pantoprazole + domperidone) reduces acid and improves gastric motility. Persistent symptoms may be due to severe gastritis, incorrect dosage, or other conditions.
Alternative or Additional Treatment Options
- Consider H2 blockers, antacids, or lifestyle changes. Consult a gastroenterologist for tailored treatment and possible diagnostic tests like endoscopy.
Recommendations and Next Steps
- Discuss medication side effects with your doctor. Do not stop fluoxetine abruptly. Implement diet changes, avoid irritants, and manage stress to reduce symptoms.
