Hi,
Thanks for your question,

Heart burn which is nothing but acid peptic disorder. Pantoprazole which are proton pump inhibitors are the 1st line drugs. doctor has prescribed and advised to take 30 minutes before breakfast once a day enough. if heart burn is not relieved with pantoprazole no need to go for tablets again, i advise you to go for antacids - GELUSIL LIQUID 5ml three times a day

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me.
Wishing you all the best.
Thanks
