| 2 | Barrett's Esopagus/Gastric Reflux | Stops working after taking 3 months-Even with increased dosage | 59 | | 6/2/2004 | 4 | acid reflux | first 2 days I felt nausea. After that severe throbbing leg pain. It has only been a week so I'm hoping symptoms will subside. | F | 47 | 6 days | 4/17/2004 | 5 | M | | 8/18/2003 | 3 | ulser | M | 69 | | 8/6/2003 | 5 | Acid Reflux | No side effects that I have noticed | I tried many, many different medications for Acid Reflux but most of them gave me little relief. Then the Dr. changed me to Protonix and I am now Reflux Free. However it does come back if I don't take the medication every day. My Dr. does keep a close watch on me and I have regular endoscopic exams. | F | 61 | 2 days | 7/17/2003 | 5 | Acid Reflux | No side effects that I have noticed | I tried many, many different medications for Acid Reflux but most of them gave me little relief. Then the Dr. changed me to Protonix and I am now Reflux Free. However it does come back if I don't take the medication every day. My Dr. does keep a close watch on me and I have regular endoscopic exams. | F | 61 | 2 years | 7/17/2003 | 4 | gerd | no side effects at all | worked fine | F | 45 | 4 weeks | 7/9/2003 | 4 | For GERD | Throbbing leg pain first week? | It took a few weeks to really work, but it was worth it. I still have to watch my diet, and if I miss a pill I feel the symptoms of GERD, but overall I feel better. | F | 34 | 4 months | 4/21/2003 | 3 | acid reflux | worked well in the morning and early afternoon but I needed to take an over the counter antacid before supper after four painful heartburn episodes. | M | 50 | 85 days | 3/18/2003 | 4 | GERD | no side effects | It instantly stopped the awful pain in my stomach and throat. I sleep much better because I used to wake up every night due to the reflux. It hasn't cured my gastritis or GERD, so I guess I'm on it for life. Looking back though, it has helped my life a lot!! | F | 28 | 6 months | 11/19/2002 | 2 | GERD | no side effects really, just didn't work very well | my symptoms almost seemed to worsen at times | F | 33 | 3 months | 11/10/2002 | 5 | reflux | none | I am concerned as to how safe this medication is and how long I should take it. | F | 59 | 6 months | 8/28/2002 | 5 | gerd / gastritis | I was prescribed Protonix by my doctor last spring after a very painful bout with GERD / gastritis, which had me in serious pain for about a day & a half. It alleviated the abdominal pain within hrs & gave my stomach the chance to heal. And as far as I could tell, no side effects! | M | 29 | 5 days | 7/23/2002 | 3 | High Acid | No side effects that I have noticed. | It does lessen the acid but not enough to stop taking the medication. So it has not been a cure. I still fight with acid reflux on a daily basis. But the diareah from the high acid has stopped and I am not as nauseated by the high acid as I was before starting the medication. | F | 33 | 8 months | 6/9/2002 | 1 | acid reflux | Diarrhea, increase in RLS pain. | I stopped taking it because of the leg pain - 2 days after stopping the drug, leg pain lessened considerably. Not sure if there's a connection but IS quite a coincidence! | F | 53 | 25 days | 6/9/2002 | 4 | High acid | None | This definitely reduced acid, but have not been able to go off the drug, so no cure. | M | 47 | 1 years | 5/12/2002 | 2 | GERD | Severe diahrreha after the first dose!!! | F | 45 | | 11/2/2001 |
