Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Reason For Stomach Discomfort After Stopping The Medication?
I was taking Pantoprazole but stopped taking it a couple of weeks ago, now I am experiencing stomach discomfort during the night and it is effecting my sleep, I have tried natural supplements to keep my stomach challenge in check but that doesn't seem to be working and here I am questioning pantoprazole again as a solution?
HI. If stopping pantoprazole is causing a problem , I would advise you to undergo upper GI Endoscopy as a first thing to diagnose what is it in the stomach and duodenum that you need pantoprazole.. A proper evaluation by a Gastroenterologist is a must. You have to follow other measures too : soft bland diet/ no spicy and oily food / no beverages/ small frequent feeds / no smoking or drinking ( if you are taking)/ most important is stress-free life/ Al these help a lot to get the problem solved.
