 2  suspicion on gastritis My symptoms before i got prescription for this medication, i was waking up in the middle of the night with palpitations, some nervousness in upper part of stomack, then i would have some kind of tremor-- in another day it developed to nausea with palpitations. I went to ER 2 times, they check my heart, blood, everything was ok (they didn't check my stomack).. i am still waiting for my gastroenterologist & endoscopy for the end of this month. Their suspicion is on stomack and gastritis, so they gave me pantoprazole 40mg, 1 per day. SIDE EFFECTS from the first day, let's say 2-3 hours after i took it: chest pain, like some tightening in chest, heart skip from time to time, shortness of breath, a little bit of dyspnea. Then i got panic attack very same day. I took it day after, it was same so I immediately stop! Now is 4 days without this pill. First two days after this pill i went to fitness, i had so much heart palpitations, muscle pain especially in legs, since it was leg day at one moment i couldn't stend on my fit normally! shortness of breath is here but not like before. Don't have chest pain anymore. Panic attacks 2-3 times per day, now let's say one time per day. I had panic attacks before (4 years ago), because of anemia at that time, so i think people should check b12 soon after they stop with this pill. I made appointment for that in couple of days. This pill helped me with nausea i had, but side effects are so dangerous that i got very scared of this pill, i think people should not take it, except when they know what is exactly their problem and what is cause of that problem, but even then. E-mail me if you have more informations about side effects. F 40

 1  suspicion on gastritis I'm no longer taking this medication. i am not using any medications now, i am unfortunately big doctors mistake! because i got acute gastritis or whatever from some virus, i've done gastroscopy and they confirmed that i don't have gastritis or any other stomach problems. i would not recommend anyone to take this poison called "pantoprazole"!!!
