Is 40 mg of pantoprazole na twice a day to much ? my pa at the va prescribed this for my acid reflux plus sucralfate 1gm tab
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maximum: 40mg twice daily of Pantoprazole is the max, very high dose. Why was it prescribed? Usually this dosing, as well as the Sucralafate, is reserved for patients with documented ulcers or other severe symptoms. What was the reason for prescribing it?
