pantoprazole tablets

I do have Gastritis (inflamed stomach) verified by Upper Endoscopy and have had it for over a month, but unsure if it is related. I'm on Pantoprazole 40mg twice per day and Famotidine 20mg three times per day, but they're both acid reducers.

The doctor prescribed me 40mg of pantoprazole to take once a day. I started the treatment and on the third day the chest pain had miraculously gone away. On the seventh day I went to a pulmonoligs to get tested for asthma and they made me use an a nebulizer that contained albuterol, something I may be allergic to. The difficulty breathing came back from using the nebulizer and so did the chest pain. On the ninth day of being on the bland diet, I decided it would be safe to drink matcha.

I've been taking 240mg S/R morphine in the morning & 180mg S/R at night. I also take 100ml oramorph a day, 8 x dihydrocodeine tablets, 4 x zydol tablets, 4 x baclofen & 2 x pantoprazole per day. This has been going on for the last 5 years & I was told on monday I need to come off it but I know it's going to be hell. I've got back problems ( had spinal fusion last year ) but still in lot of pain. I also now have osteoporosis. How am I going to cope without it?

This is a question for your physician. It can probably be handled with a telephone call.

I am being weaned from pantoprazole with ranitidine. It seems that now that we have reached the pantoprazole every third day stage, I am getting weekly bouts of diarrhea, especially if I drink more than one cup of coffee. Is this a side effect? The diarrhea wakes me at night.

The gastro report says they biopsied a polyp in my stomach which was benign, and they found my stomach acid is too high in my osophogis (sp). I am to continue taking 2 pantoprazole per day and repeat the gastroscopy in a year. I just thought I'd post my results because I had posted that I had these proceedures done.

Doctors prescribed to many antibiotics which led to my acid reflux. Got on pantoprazole for the reflux, it’s been working great but in the last week I’ve had this pins and needles sensation in my legs feel nauseous and I can’t seem to shake that somethings wrong with me. I’m in constant fear. I don’t know if the pantoprazole is giving me the tingling feeling because I’m not on anything else?

t find anything but a slightly elevated blood sugar and potassium deficiency, I received potassium tablets which I took the following days and the pain was gone. A few weeks later the symptoms kept getting worse, without any reason I now had lost 5kg of weight in 2 weeks and it kept dropping, I now got headaches, felt dizzy, generally weak, my joints and muscles hurt, an unpleasant strong pulse felt in my entire body(even when lying down) and slight trouble breathing.

I have read a lot about the interaction between Plavix and PPI’s but he thinks only Omeprazole have more effect on Plavix, not Pantoprazole. Please, let me know what your opinion is and have you heard about any interaction between those two? I don’t need an additional heart attack.

I just had a pneumonia almost 2 months ago and i had ulcer last November but already been cured by pantoprazole domperidone. Now i feel like my ulcer reoccured again coz im having heartburn,stomach pain and bloating and nauseous. My question is can i take pantoprazole again even though i just had pneumonia and still having shortness of breath and chest pain? Pls help coz i dont know what really is the cause of my difficulty in breathing is it from having pneumonia or my ulcer.

I should also mention that I had a clear colonoscopy which is great. However, the pain never really seemed to be lower- it's between my navel and rib cage often radiating to my back. The diarrhea is sticky and either black or grey and it burns. I tested negative for occult blood. Rarely with the dry heaving fits do I vomit, but when I do it is dark purple or greyish.

ve been given lansoprazole by my doctor for suspected overproduction of stomach acid. Although i still have diarrhoea, the tablets seemed to have lessen all the other sytoms (mainly pain, feeling sick and being sick). But i am worried as to why i have developed this. Before the tablets, it has been getting steadily worse for around two months. I am nearly at the end of a monthly course of tablets and will be seeing the doctor soon, what further tests or treatments should i be asking for?

Welcome to the gastroenterology community! Tecta (which from my research, I believe is Pantoprazole) is a PPI and Zantac is a H2 blocker, so the answer most likely is that, yes you can take both of these together, but I would still recommend checking this out with your doctor.

Hey Crashalot, I wonder if subconsciously, you really DON'T enjoy this? It may be that the idea of it is a turn-on, but at the same time you feel it's kind of 'icky' (sorry to use such a word, just couldn't think of a better one)? Some guys may think it's not all that clean & the odor isn't the greatest & the thought of having your mouth there isn't real appealing.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community! From your profile I see that you are a teenager and I assume you live in the US. I would guess that this is anxiety, which I see that you also have from your profile. Pantoprazole (Protonix) is only by perscription and treats GERD which I don't think you have and Domperidone is not FDA approved in the US so I would not recommend either of these suggestion.

Is it reasonable for me to get a Hep B blood panel done again or is it not as only 5 months passed from my previous tests? I did not take any chemotherapy or steroid drugs, only pantoprazole to treat my h-pylori and vitamin supplements. My GP said it cannot reactivate Hep B, at the same time he's not sure why I'm getting all those symptoms.

Exactly seven days later I had a perforated duodenal ulcer and emergency surgery. Afterwards I was put on pantoprazole 40mg, once a day. I was on this for three months then my prescription was over. During my time off of pantoprazole I noticed sharp abdominal pains, nausea, bloating, and a general unwell feeling. I saw a GI who didn’t offer much insight but scheduled a colonoscopy/endoscopy and put me back on pantoprazole 40mg.

Then I started having stomach pains and I was put on the antacid pantoprazole and a stool softener for constipation. After about a month and a half I was feeling so good I stopped taking the pantoprazole after consulting with my doctor. A week later I was having bad GERD and went back on it. I still don't know what initially caused the bloating, why it ramped up to GERD so quickly off the medication, and how damaged my LES is now.

I am aware of Protonix generic Pantoprazole. I have now been advised by a Pharmacist that Prevacid will help me. Will it?? Is this a Beta Blocker only or more? Are there ANY Proton pump Inhibitors out there other than Protonix and generic?. Is there a hospital injection of medicine that can be given? I will anxiously await any and all replys. I am living on Pepcid now with little relief. My Pharmacy puts Protonix at $737. for 180 40mg.tabs of Protonix and $570 for Pantoprazole.

Had endoscopy week ago. Still have nausea. Taking Pantoprazole for week. All tests/biopsy negative. Thanks.

How long will I have to take pantoprazole 40mg/day for my acid reflux? Will I ever be cured from acid reflux hence no more medicine OR this is a life time thing which means continued use of daily medicine?
