Researchers found 8 meta-analysis and systematic reviews showing the positive link between PPI use and the risk of clostridium difficile infections
This study found that ongoing exposure to PPIs was associated with a doubled risk of community-acquired Clostridium difficile infection
Both the overall pooled estimates and subgroup analyses showed increased risk for CDI despite substantial statistical heterogeneity among studies
A new study suggests the use of common heartburn medications may play a role in recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI)
It may be more likely with other PPIs like esomeprazole (Nexium) and lansoprazole (Prevacid) than it is with Protonix

Risk factors include antibiotic use, immunosuppression, surgery, other health problems, and hospitalization
Pantoprazole comes as oral tablets that are taken by mouth
Prescription-only PPIs include esomeprazole ( Nexium) and pantoprazole ( Protonix ); over-the-counter PPIs include lansoprazole ( Prevacid) and omeprazole ( Prilosec )
Pantoprazole may cause some individuals to develop a skin rash or hives
It is most often given orally as a pill Protonix is also associated with some more severe adverse reactions, such as: C

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used in clinical practice for the prevention and treatment of peptic ulcer, gastritis, esophagitis and gastroesophageal reflux
Over the past two decades, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have emerged as highly effective and relatively safe agents for the treatment of a variety of gastrointestinal disorders
