Hi eva,

I actually came across an article on Tecta (Pantoprazole Magnesium Tablets), briefly discussing the role our kidney's play when it comes to metabolizing this medication. I quoted the paragraph below thinking it may be of help:

"Kidney function: The kidneys are responsible for removing pantoprazole magnesium from the body. If you have reduced kidney function or kidney disease, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed."

Ref: ghc.mediresource.com/drug_detail.asp?brand_name_id=5114

I hope this helps! Have you already started taking it?
