HI
Thanks for posting your query.
See , Pantocid _IT is given for treating Hyperacidity or Gastritis. You doctor had initially suspected Hyperacidity or Gastritis as the cause of your abdominal pain and hence he has prescribed that medicine.
But after doing a scan ( I hope a scan was done ) He has diagnosed as Stones In your Gall Bladder as the cause of your abdominal pain. For this condition Pantocid-IT will not be of much help.
For Gall bladder stones surgical removal of whole gall bladder is the right treatment. Kindly go ahead and get it done.
Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarifications feel free to ask.
Regards.
