Hi @sunflower1956, welcome.
You might be interested in these 2 related discussions:
- Has anybody successfully tapered off of lorazepam (Ativan)?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/tapering-off-of-lorazepam-ativan/
- PPI Pantoprozole: Can't tolerate side effects with Stomach Ulcer: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/ppi-pantoprozole-40mg-for-stomach-ulcer-side-effects/

Is there any reason why you need to taper both medications at the same time? Could you complete your taper from lorazepam first? Or has your doctor suggested discontinuing both?

I am concerned that the pantoprazole may have an affect on how the benzoyl is working since they both are metabolized in the liver. I'm having a hard time with my lorazepam taper and .my GI track really gives me a lot of trouble.
