Q. Can I take Pantoprazole for a long term?
Pantoprazole is usually prescribed for short term use only. However, if need arises, such as for treating peptic ulcer disease and Zollinger Ellison syndrome (ZES), Pantoprazole may be prescribed for a long term duration as well. Long term use may carry an increased risk for side effects and must be discussed with the doctor. Please use Pantoprazole as advised by your doctor and under their supervision.

If the use is further prolonged for more than a year, you may have an increased risk of bone fractures, stomach infections and vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 deficiency can make you anemic, as a result of which you may feel more tired, weak, or pale. Additionally you may have palpitations, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, indigestion, loss of appetite, flatulence (gas) or nerve problems such as numbness, tingling and problem in walking.
Q. What is the best time to take Pantoprazole?
Usually, Pantoprazole is taken once a day, first thing in the morning. If you take Pantoprazole twice a day, take 1 dose in the morning and 1 dose in the evening. The tablets should be swallowed whole (remember not be chewed or crushed) and taken at least 1 hour before a meal with some water.
Q. Is a single dose of Pantoprazole sufficient?

Pantoprazole is usually needed only for a short term or upto 2 weeks for heartburn, indigestion, acid reflux. However, if need arises, such as for treating peptic ulcer disease and Zollinger Ellison syndrome (ZES), Pantoprazole may be prescribed for a long term duration as well. Please consult your doctor if you do not feel better even after taking Pantoprazole regularly for 2 weeks as prescribed.
Q. Can I stop taking Pantoprazole if I feel better?
If you have been taking Pantoprazole for a long time, stopping it abruptly may lead to increased acid production, thereby worsening your symptoms. Therefore, you must discuss with your doctor about any dose changes or if you wish to come off Pantoprazole.
Q. Does Pantoprazole cause weight gain?
Although rare but long-term treatment with Pantoprazole may cause weight gain. The reason could be the relief from reflux symptoms which could make you eat more. Consult your doctor for any weight-related concern.
Q. Can I take alcohol with Pantoprazole?
No, alcohol intake is not advised with Pantoprazole. Alcohol itself does not affect the working of Pantoprazole, but it can increase the acid production. This may further cause worsening of your symptoms.
