GERD
"My Dr prescribed pantoprazone for chronic cough. He thought the cough and hoarseness might be caused by GERD.  I quit after a few days because of the side effects. My osteoarthritis was so sore after taking this med that I could barely walk . I had ulcers in my mouth, my nose was tingling and I had horrible headaches.  Days  after quitting , I am having attacks of heartburn.  I had none before taking this med.  my advice is not to go near it!!"
