Pantoprazole, sold under the brand name Protonix among others, is a medication used for the treatment of stomach ulcers, short-term treatment of erosive esophagitis due to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis, and pathological hypersecretory conditions including Zollinger–Ellison syndrome.[3] It may also be used along with other medications to eliminate Helicobacter pylori.[6] Effectiveness is similar to other proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).[7] It is available by mouth and by injection into a vein.[3]
Common side effects include headaches, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and joint pain.[3] More serious side effects may include severe allergic reactions, a type of chronic inflammation known as atrophic gastritis, Clostridium difficile colitis, low magnesium, and vitamin B12 deficiency.[3] Use in pregnancy appears to be safe.[3] Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that decreases gastric acid secretion.[3] It works by inactivating (H+/K+)-ATPase function in the stomach.[8][3]
Study of pantoprazole began in 1985, and it came into medical use in Germany in 1994.[9] It is available as a generic medication.[3] As of 2018, the wholesale cost of the pills in the United States is less than US$0.10 per dose.[10] In the United Kingdom, this amount costs less than 0.05 pounds, while the intravenous formulation costs about five pounds per dose.[6] In 2017, it was the 19th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 27 million prescriptions.[11][12]
