A member asked:
I have had upper stomach pain and acid, my doctor prescribed protonix, (pantoprazole) is this generally acid reflux?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe its not reflux: Lack of response to acid suppression ; antacids raises several possibilities: 1) you have excessive acid production; 2) your reflux is of non-acid material; 3) your esophagus is severely inflammed, infected, or ulcerated; 4) you have heightened esophageal sensitivity; 5) your present symptoms are not reflux-related ; warrants further investigation. Try the Protonix (pantoprazole) ; advise your doc of response.
