Hi, @malooga - Sorry to hear you felt awful while on the pantoprazole (Protonix).

You are saying you experienced rebound acid hypersecretion? If so, what symptoms did you experience with that? Does your doctor have any suggestions for tapering off the sucralfate (Carafte)?

It was an unbearable burning in my stomach. Actually I had it before 5 years ago and had to wean off of it. I was on a ppi for months then and found out it was my gallbladder. The ppi meds never helped my symptoms. No blame to my health care folks. Just the way the cards fell. Anyway, it took months to finally stop. I took famotidine and sucralfate then as well.
This time I was prescribed ppi meds for acid reflux. I thought it would be helpful but for some reason it made me more I'll.
Now I'm only taking my morning dose of carafate.
Glad to pass on a success story for folks.
I beat this twice.
