"I have been taking this for over 2 years. Helped with the ulcer problem, but I still take it because it calms the stomach and keeps the acid at bay. I just eat what I want, no drinking alcohol, just tea and a couple of cokes. Pretty happy with this generic version of 40 mg pantoprazole. I wish I could blame this pill for the ringing in the ears and body aches, but I had all of this way before I started this medicine. Stopped a few times and the fire in my stomach came back, so I now take it as needed, but not every day. I am pretty happy with the results."

"My dr prescribed Trustan 40mg after I swallowed the camera, but it was to expensive. Pantoprazole helped me a lot with my stomach ulcers. But I have to stay close to the toilet. I do not experience headaches more than usual."
