Both medicines can cause nausea , but in 2 days time should't be affecting the liver.Get LFT done for Liver enzyme estimation- Take these medicines on empty stomach 2 hours before breakfast and also take pantoprazole-domperidone combination empty stomach at same time.Watch the results till your Doc. returns and report the results to him
