Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), may increase fracture risk when used long-term or in high doses, as it can reduce calcium absorption, potentially affecting bone density.
While Pantoprazole is generally safe, it can reduce calcium absorption and increase fracture risk in osteoporotic patients, especially with long-term use.
