PROTONIX  (PANTOPRAZOLE SODIUM):  Pantoprazole is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. This medication relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. It helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, helps prevent ulcers, and may help prevent cancer of the esophagus. Pantoprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).   (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA) FDA Approval Date: 2000-02-02

 2  Acid Reflux Was put on Protonix for acid reflux. Immediate onset of symptoms including muscle pain near the joints (neck, arms, legs), overwhelming pain in lower abdomen/groin area, to the point I had my doctor examine me for double hernia. Worked great for the heartburn, but the longer I took it, the worse the muscle/joint pain became. Discontinued after 30 days and symptoms were gone within 2 weeks. M 40 30 days

 4  GERD and duodenal ulcer Did not find it to be as good a prilosec. So, slightly more reflux even when taking it regularly Generally, I have found protonix 40 mg to be effective. I still think prilosec is better. M 29 1 years

 3  Prilosec Shortages This medicine didn't last all day for me. It seems to exacerbate my IBS problems. Heartburn never really goes away like it did with Prilosec Save yourself some money on a co-pay and go get Prilosec from Costco or Sam's Club... you won't be sorry. F 25 7 days
