Hairline fracture in 4th metacarpal

2017-05-17 16:16:54
I am worried about the medication prescribed by my doctor but bit hesitant to question him. I was asked to take pantoprazole tablets (I dont have any issues with my stomach acid) & Paracetamol (i dont have any pain nor fever). I thought I would be asked to take multi vitamins & calcium tablets. But that was not the case.

Paracetamol works effectively as a painkiller, so you have been prescribed that. If you have also been prescribed anti-inflammatory then Pantaprazole is useful. If not you can omit that. Hope this helps.
