Drink lemon water: 2 cups of lukewarm, filtered water with freshly-squeezed juice from 1/4 lemon. It helps cleanse the digestive system, ignite your metabolism and buffer excess acids. Despite the lemons being acidic in their natural form, lemon water is alkaline-forming to the body once consumed.

I have heartburn for about a day after taking the dexamethasone. My doctor is aware and has down the dose and it better .

I have heartburn and trouble swallowing. I take pantoprazole twice a day. I take 20mg of Revlimid. I wonder if that makes it worse. I’ll ask my oncologist, and maybe have the dosage decreased.

I've been taking prescription Protonix (Pantaprazole) for many years due to reflux and other GI issues. I've stopped it at certain times to see if it was causing other problems, but always went back on it because my reflux came back with a vengeance.

I tried many different OTC remedies but nothing works as well as prescription Protonix.

Yes, it’s a known side effect. Doctor has suggested for Pantoprazole-40 once daily in morning in empty stomach. They have instructed to take in evening as well if more heartburn is there. Rgds
