For GERD "Went to a doctor because of stomach pain. My own diagnosis is gallbladder/gallstones; he said no, no other explanation and prescribed me pantoprazole. I took it because he knows better; he is the doctor. Took it as soon as I got the meds; unexplainable - belly pain got worse the next day, feverish, lower back pain, anxiety, emotional roller coaster, fatigue, dizziness - it was ugly. It was a very ugly experience! You think you get better taking meds; this is the only medicine that I took that made me feel worse. By the way, I was prescribed 40 mg for 30 days. I took it for 8 days; the original pain location got worse when I was taking this to the point that I wanted to go to the hospital. Also, the pain location changed; I wish I had figured it out earlier. I thought I was going to the hospital kind of pain during the 8 days. I have no idea why he gave me GERD medicine. I didn’t complain of any heartburn. I will try to see if I still have any pain in a week and find another doctor."

For GERD "I was on this medication for 4 months for GERD. A couple of weeks ago, I started experiencing joint pain and aches in my legs. I also started getting double vision and didn't piece it all together until I had stomach pains for a week. The pharmacist was so helpful. Now I’m on another medication, and it has its own set of side effects. Starting to think aloe vera juice and apple cider gummies are better than these medications."

For GERD "I have been on Pantoprazole for many years. I have been cutting back from a daily dose to every other day and now every third day. I’m experiencing heavy withdrawal symptoms of stomach pain, increased headaches, and feelings of heart palpitations. I want to get off this product and feel normal."
