Protonix is a brand equivalent for the generic drug pantoprazole sodium (pantoprazole SOD). Pantoprazole sodium is classified as a proton pump inhibitor, a class of drugs commonly used to suppress gastric acid secretion. The medication is proven effective for conditions such as the esophageal damage caused by acid reflux, which occurs in GERD, or for peptic ulcers that occur as a result of the overproduction of gastric acid in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.

That is the generic name! GENERIC NAME: pantoprazole BRAND NAME: Protonix Pantoprazole is in a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPI) which block the production of acid by the stomach. Proton pump inhibitors are used for the treatment of conditions such as ulcers, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome that are caused by stomach acid. Pantoprazole blocks enzymes in the wall of the stomach that produce acid. By blocking the enzyme, the production of acid is decreased, and this allows the stomach and esophagus to heal.
