Pantoprazole and domperidone are usually meant for short-term use. Long-term use can cause nutrient deficiencies, bone/kidney issues, or heart rhythm problems.
For chronic IBS, focus on diet, lifestyle, and probiotics. Continue these medicines only under doctor supervision at the lowest effective dose
