Why am I still experiencing pain in my upper stomach after eating spicy food, even though I have a history of stomach ulcers and took Pantocid DSR last night?

Hello. I understand how uncomfortable this stomach pain can be, especially when you have already taken your medication. While Pantocid DSR (pantoprazole and domperidone) helps reduce stomach acid, a single dose may not fully shield your stomach lining from the direct irritation caused by spicy foods, especially with your history of ulcers. Spicy ingredients can directly inflame the sensitive areas of your stomach, overriding the medication's protective effects. It is usually best to take this medication consistently before breakfast as advised by your doctor, and temporarily avoid spicy foods to let your stomach heal. If the pain persists, please consult your physician for a check-up.
