Protonix works very good for my acid reflux but when I stop taking it, I have acid reflux again. I feel so frustrated and stress about this. If I stop taking protonix, my tonsils get back to normal. But if I feel so much pain in my stomach. Anyone has any suggestions and please help. I tried Aciphex/Nexium/previsas/zantax but no help for my acid reflux except protonix.
I am not so sure about this. However, when I stopped taking this for about one month, I don't see the white spots/bumps on my tonsils anymore. Now I just started taking it about one week, it appears again on my tonsils. Thanks.
Usually white bumps or spots on your tonsils is a sign of tonsilitis or strep throat. I dont' think its related to the protonix. Next time you see the symptom- I think you sould go to your doctor. Some people can get recurrent tonsilitis- I had it as a kid.
I take Protonix with no side effects. I was taking prilosec- then Aciphex w/ no relief. The Protonix seems to really work. It's only been about a month though..
I have been taking on/off the Protonix 40mg for at least 5 years. It works good for my acid reflux. However, everytime I am taking it for two weeks up to 2 months, I always get tonsils infection (not really infection but my breath smell bad and I saw the tonsil through the mirror with the white thing on the tonsils). Is this one of the sideeffect from this medication? When I stop taking this medicine, the white spots disappear. Please help but I have to take it for my acid reflux. Thank you.
