Slow transition: Sometimes it's better to taper off the Protonix (pantoprazole) gradually to prevent a rebound reflux problem. Another option is to take otc antacids like zantac or Pepcid symptomatically for a while. If all else fails, then you may need to stay on protonix (pantoprazole).

Recently, I had an acute episode of partial regurgitation of a mixture of lemon juice/apple cider vinegar. I had taken it as a suggestion from a YouTube video to combat gout. The mixture obviously came into the back of my throat and burned the cords.
