Pantoprazole (Generic Protonix)
What Is Pantoprazole?
Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that directly tackles problems with excessive stomach acid. This can include a range of conditions such as GERD or Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
You will find this medication under the brand name Protonix, and it is available in three main forms:
- Oral tablets
- Oral liquid
- IV
How Does Pantoprazole Work?
Protonix – or Pantoprazole – works by decreasing the levels of acid in your stomach. As a member of the PPI family, it does this by inhibiting the cells in your stomach that pump acid into it.
This leads to lower levels of stomach acid which can prevent a whole assortment of symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and more.
What Is Pantoprazole Used For?
Pantoprazole is widely used to treat the symptoms of GERD. This condition happens when excess stomach acid flows back into the esophagus and causes irritation. It can lead to the following symptoms:
- Heartburn
- Sore throat
- Swallowing issues
- Vomiting
- Regurgitation
- Abdominal and chest pain
- Persistent cough
Alongside this, Pantoprazole is used to treat Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. This is a rare digestive disorder that affects the small intestine and leads to excess stomach acid production.
What Are The Side Effects Of Pantoprazole?
The side effects of Pantoprazole vary from mild to severe. Here are some of the mild and most common side effects you may experience:
- Stomach pain
- Diarrhea
- Mild dizziness
- Headaches
- Joint pain
- Nausea
- Bloating
- Constipation or diarrhea
Individuals who report these side effects usually state that they go away within a few days or weeks. They aren’t a major cause for concern, but if they persist for numerous weeks or start to get worse, you should speak to a medical professional and stop taking Pantoprazole.
As well as the mild side effects there are some severe ones you should keep an eye out for:
- Broken bones
- Stomach polyps
- Allergic reactions
- Severe diarrhea
- Lups
- Magnesium deficiency
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- Kidney pain
When any of these signs are present, you should immediately stop taking Pantoprazole and seek medical assistance.
How Do You Take Pantoprazole?
Pantoprazole comes in various forms but it is commonly prescribed as an oral tablet. Your doctor will decide on the strength of the tablet based on your symptoms and needs. This also determines your daily dose, but all of this will be outlined when you obtain your prescription.
We strongly advise reading the information sheet that comes with your Pantoprazole tablets as this also contains extra info on dosages and what medications may interact with this drug.
The general guidelines for taking Protonix are to swallow the tablets whole, with or without food. Keep taking your dose as prescribed by your doctor unless you see any negative side effects. If your symptoms don’t change and you’re still experiencing issues with high levels of stomach acid, it’s a good idea to consult your doctor and they may prescribe a higher dose.
