This medicine is the only one so far that has worked for me. Been on it 2.5 weeks and only draw back is getting tingling and numbness in lips and left cheek.

Been taking for a number of years without complication but now every time I take it my chest gets tight and moves up to my throat feeling as though I am having an asthma attack.

Comment:
Was on Nexium for 3 years. Drug program switched me to pantoprazole which I have been using for at least another 4 years. Both have worked very well. Friends say I should be aware of long term effects which I have not had. Love it, stopped the gerd in days and has not returned.

Comment:
On it for a week now and have had terrible headaches since I started. However my sore throat and heartburn from gastric reflux are much better. Have another appointment with Dr. in 3 weeks. Will discuss headaches if still suffering from them.
