For GERD "I was taking 20-80 mg of pantoprazole a day for GERD. I noticed I was extremely gassy and bloated every day, constantly burping, weird stomach noises, etc. I thought something was wrong with me. So I stopped taking pantoprazole, and the bloating/gas went away for the most part. If you're taking this medication and also bloated and have the burps/farts all day, this medication may be why. I'm going to be trying a different drug for my GERD."

For GERD "I was diagnosed with acute gastritis. I only wanted something to feel less bloated and gassy at night, but my doctor asked me to take pantoprazole for 10 days, twice a day. After 4 days of using, my heart started beating fast for no reason in the middle of the night. That brought me panic attacks, thinking it’s related to a heart issue. Head feels heavy and feels like something is crawling on the forehead. Besides, I guess it only helps to relieve ulcer pain in the stomach. Did almost nothing for bloatedness. In fact, it made me more gassy at night. I’m gonna stop using it. It gave me more clarity on the side effects after reading up all the reviews here. Avoid using this pill. It’s a nightmare worse than what the diagnosis is."
