Pantocid 20 Side Effects

I am patient of Hypertension. Along with other medicines like olemsar 20, my physician prescribed pantocid 20. I take pantocid occasionally. Now a days I am feeling no effect of pantocid regarding gastric problem. Should I discontinue pantocid? suggest other alternative medicine as i feel lots of gases in my stomach.

Pantocid contains the active ingredient Pantoprazole, it is a proton pump inhibitor that is used to treat or prevent conditions such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis.

First of all, these medications really work better for this problems, if they are taken regularly. Occasional use is not going to do much to help if you have acid damage, such as that caused by one of the conditions I mentioned above.

And if you are just taking it to help with gas, then you are taking the wrong medication, as these medications don't do anything to help with that. As a matter of fact, they can actually cause gas as a side effect.

What is your specific gastric problem?

If it is a gas problem, then you may want to talk to your doctor about using something that works specifically for that, such as a medication that contains Simethicone.

If it is something else, such as an ulcer, or other acid problem, then you should try taking the Pantocid daily for about 3 months or so. By using it like that and letting it reduce the amount of acid produced by your stomach, it can help give these conditions time to heal.

Otherwise, if it just doesn't work for you, at all, you might do better with a medication in the class that Sunnia suggested, such as the Ranitidine (Zantac) or Famotidine (Pepcid).
