Hello
Your mother is 92 years old .
She is taking pantocid i.e. pantaprazole is a proton pump inhibitors and used for the hyper acidity or gastritis or gas formation or peptic ulcer disease.
Digene is a combination of magnesium hydroxide, aluminium hydroxie, simethicon and Na carbxoymethypceelulose.
The side effects of pantocid is very common and minor but it produces DIARRHEA , dizziness , icching , flatulence, URINARY FREQUENCY , U T I rhinitis and others .
So your mother may have these symptoms ( diarrhea frequent urine ) due to the side effects of pantacid.
Consult your doctor and get his help.
Good luck.
