Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

These medications can cause hyeracidity as a side effect and it is the cause of acid reflux.
In case if you already have acid reflux then it can get aggravated if you do not take proper medicine to protect your stomach.
As you are already taking Pantoprazole you need not to worry as it will help in keeping acidity at bay.
Also take Digene or milk of magnesia syrup before meals.
Avoid spicy and acidic foods and drink plenty of water.
Do regular walk and exercise.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
