new proton pump inhibitor, Protonix (pantoprazole)

July 2000

You will hear a lot about the new proton pump inhibitor, Protonix (pantoprazole).

It's similar to the others...but will cost up to $1/day less.

This means you'll start seeing Protonix on formularies...instead of Prilosec (omeprazole), Prevacid (lansoprazole), or Aciphex (rabeprazole).
