Pantoprazole "I was recently hospitalized for 4 days with a duodenal ulcer. They ran Protonix through an IV -- I was in miserable pain. Within 2 days, no problems, and I could eat again. I'm now on 40mg 2x a day, and soon decreasing to 1. It really works, with no side effects!"

"I was rushed to the hospital with a bleeding duodenal ulcer and treated with pantoprazole after bleeding was stopped, and it did a great job with minor dry mouth side effect. I believe the drug works well."

"My doctor prescribed this medication, 40 mg twice daily. After 3 weeks of taking this, it landed me in the hospital with severe electrolyte imbalance. I thought I was dying - the pain was unbearable. Will never take this drug again."
