To help with your knee pain, you have been prescribed S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine and Pantoprazole. S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine works by promoting cartilage repair and reducing inflammation, which helps ease joint pain and stiffness over time. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid, protecting your stomach lining from potential irritation often associated with joint pain management. Both medications are generally very safe. S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine can sometimes cause mild nausea, bloating, or headaches. Pantoprazole may occasionally lead to mild diarrhea or stomach discomfort. These side effects are typically temporary. Please consult your doctor if you experience any persistent issues.
