Common Questions and Answers about Actonel and stomach problems
actonel
While I was pushing the pill through the foil blister, it broke. I did not take that pill for fear that it could cause stomach problems. My question is would it have been safe to take? Also, if I contact Proctor & Gamble, do you think they might replace the pill. If it was a daily pill, I wouldn't worry about, but I just lost a whole month of medicine due to a faulty package design.

They are given generally prescribed orally and include Fosamax, Actonel and Boniva. They can cause some severe stomach distress as they did for my father. When this happens there are injectable forms of bisphosphonates.
Ibandronate (Boniva injection) is injected into your vein once every three months, and zoledronic acid (Reclast) is injected once a year. If approved by your physician these treatments do not cause stomach distress and you do not have to remember to take a tablet.
She also said that Calcium should be spread out during the day and not taken all at once. Due to all my stomach problems, I haven't taken any supplements in weeks. I am going to discuss all of this with her tomorrow. T think I read that thyroid problems can cause stomach issues. Even though I do seem to have some symptoms of thyroid problems, my tests are Aleah's in the normal ranges. A friend of mine, who is also 63, had her thyroid gland destroyed (?

I was diagnosed with severe gastritis caused by H. Pylori this march and the doctor treated me with antibiotics and some antacids. After some time I repeated the test for H. Pylori and it was negative. But the symptoms weren't gone. I had nausea, heartburn, constant fullness and pain in the stomach even after eating little amount of food, loss of the appetite, chronic fatigue (in the past I've also had candida infections).
I had similar syptoms four years ago and was diagonsed with diverticulitus
if its bad I have anti biotics but when I feel it coming on I drink peppermint tea especially morning and night and now and again ginger ale. It helps and sometimes I can stop an attack before it comes too bad. I suggest you go back to your doctor and ask to be tested for diverticulitus of Irritable bowl syndrome.
I am a 30 year old female, and for quite a long time I get stomach discomforts from time to time. I do suffer with depression for which I have been taking sertraline for the last 6 months (this all started way before this though) The best way to give you my symptoms is to list them with how often they reoccur.
For the past year i have been dealing with on and off stomach problems. It started with getting sick in the middle of the night after drinking beer. So sick i thought it was food poisoning. That happen the next time i drank(2drinks) also. So i stopped drinking. What has been happening sence then is out of no where i feel weak for a day. Almost like i am getting the flu and then i have mild pain in my upper abdomen and my stomach feels like it is burning with acid.
If your symptoms do not go away, then you need to see a Gastroenterologist, he is most likely going to do an Endoscopy to take a look and see if your stomach lining is inflamed or if you have an ulcer, If you do have to see a Gastro, stop taking any Acid Pump Prohibitors ie: Prilosec, Omeprazole etc, these medications supress HPylori and any tests will come up negative, even if the bacteria is present.

right side of rib cage, went from constipated to going all of the time. Everytime I eat my stomach bloats and I have to use restroom. Horrible pain after I eat also. Feeling of fullness...even if all I eat is a cracker. They have done blood work, xrays,ct scan,ultrasound of gallbladder and everything is normal. They recently did more blood work, stool samples and I have an endoscope & colonostmy scheduled. My stool goes from black tary to normal color and liquid. I'm at my wits end!
But i have been drinking the Valerian Root Tea for few days now and from yesterday i started having this stomach pain. And when i go to bathroom its not normal. It feels like i have diarrhea but i dont but i feel like i need to go to bathroom. I wanted to know if these herbal teas could cause this kind of stomach discomfort. I havent been drinking anymore Valerian Root Tea today but i still have the stomach problems.
This initally had good results, but I have evolved into mild constipation and the stomach distress and gas seems to be escalating again. I am taking 300mcg Synthroid, 5mcg Cytomel,daily, vitamins, one HCL and a Digestive enzyme with each meal. I feel pretty good with current thyroid regime, though I do need 10hr of sleep to feel normal, it takes awhile to get going am, and still feel moody. I eat well, lots of veges , cooked and raw, fruit, low meat intake, lots of water.
