If used for more than three months, potential long-term side effects include: low magnesium levels, which can lead to fatigue, confusion, dizziness, muscle twitches and irregular heartbeat. It may also increase the risk of bone fractures (due to decreased calcium levels in the blood) after extended use, especially hip, wrist, or spine fractures, stomach infections, and vitamin B12 deficiency, leading to anemia.

Possible vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with this medication. Vitamin B12 requires an acidic environment for its absorption from the stomach, and this medicine can decrease gastric acid secretion. Vitamin C levels may also be impacted by this medication. Supplementing with vitamin B12 is recommended.
