Used For:

Pantoprazole sodium is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat conditions related to excess stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, and erosive esophagitis. It works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach, promoting healing and relieving symptoms like heartburn and acid reflux.

Side Effects:

Common side effects include headache, diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and flatulence. Rare but serious side effects may include low magnesium levels, vitamin B12 deficiency with long-term use, or an increased risk of bone fractures. Allergic reactions, though uncommon, can occur and may include rash, itching, or swelling.

Precautions:

Pantoprazole should be used with caution in individuals with severe liver impairment, low magnesium levels, or a history of osteoporosis. It may mask symptoms of stomach cancer, so prolonged use without medical supervision is not recommended. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider before use. Pantoprazole is typically taken before meals, and adherence to prescribed dosage is essential for effective treatment. Avoid combining with other PPIs or over-the-counter antacids without medical advice.
