Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. Pantocid DSR contains pantoprazole 40 mg and domperidone 30 mg which is a medicine to prevent vomiting and stomach ulcer. It is a prescription medicine.

2. The medicine pantocid DSR should take 1 hour before meal. It will not work well if you take after meals. This does not cause mouth ulcers.

3. It is probable that your mouth ulcer is due to diabetes or vitamin deficiency. Please consult the ENT specialist and confirm the condition.

Hope your query is answered.
