Hi,
Thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com
This is Dr. Swarnava dattagupta answering your query.
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.
First of all, you did not follow the dosage properly. Once daily dose is the ideal dose. However, it might have led to some overdose of the drug, though mild in nature. Hence, you might have suffered from the above symptoms. As per your history, you have improved and are better now. My suggestion would be to take pantoprazole-domperidone tablet before breakfast everyday for 15 days. This will help you regularise your metabolism and take care of the nausea. Also, you can take paracetamol for fever.
I believe it is not serious. You will be alright.
Hope i have answered your question.
If you have any further questions i will be happy to help.
Regards
