Is pantoprazole safe in pregnancy?
PregnancyAnswer
Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to treat heartburn and acid reflux, is generally avoided during pregnancy unless necessary and under strict medical supervision. PPIs, while effective, have potential risks and should only be used if other, safer management strategies are unsuccessful. The potential risks of Pantoprazole can vary, and the decision regarding its use during pregnancy must be made in conjunction with a medical professional.
Your doctor can assess the risks and benefits of using this medication, considering your specific health needs and the progress of your pregnancy. Always seek medical advice before using this medication while pregnant.
