Why am I seeing undigested food, like white rice and vegetables, in my stool while taking Pantocid tablets twice a day and Gaviscon syrup twice a day for severe acid reflux and an H. pylori infection?

Pantocid (pantoprazole) and Gaviscon work by significantly reducing your stomach acid to heal your reflux and H. pylori infection. However, stomach acid is essential for breaking down tough food fibers, like those in vegetables and rice. With lower acid levels, some foods may pass through your system less digested than usual. Chewing your food very thoroughly can help ease digestion. Please continue your prescribed treatment and mention this to your doctor at your next follow-up.
