I am 16 weeks pregnant and suffering with severe vomitings,acidity and heart burn.My doctor has prescribed Zofer and Pan D to control vomitings and acidity. I just wanted to check if it is safe to take pan D during pregnancy,and also if there are any side effects for the same. ## Pan-D contains the active ingredients Pantoprazole and Domperidone, while neither have been shown to cause risk to the baby, there have actually been no controlled studies done in humans to establish that. Learn more Pantoprazole details here. Learn more Domperidone details here. Have you discussed your concerns with your doctor?

Can I take pan 40 or pan d during pregnancy? Please advice me. ## There are no studies showing the Pantoprazole is known to be dangerous, during pregnancy, but the NIH does advise that it only be taken by a pregnant woman if no other options work, or if other options are not available. The same applies to the Domperidone in Pan D, it should only be taken if your doctor feels that the benefits to you will outweigh any possible risk. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, stomach pain, flatulence, and diarrhea. Are you on any other medications?
