I have been taking pantoprazole 40mg for almost 3 months now and while it helped my abdominal pain after 1 month of use the symptoms are now returning in a milder form.

What is the difference between pan 40 and pantosec dsr 40? My mother had an elbow fracture followed by surgery. She is on diabetic and blood pressure meds. The doctor also prescribed pan 40, but the med store gave her pantosec dsr 40. Are they the same? ## Pantosec D SR combing Pantoprazole with Domperidone and the SR designates it as being a time released formulation, so no, it is not actually the same.
