Minor lansoprazole side effects
Some of the lansoprazole side effects include stomach pain, irregularity, diarrhea, headache, nausea and dizziness. While most of these lansoprazole side effects are considered to be minor if you have any of these lansoprazole side effects for more than a few days, you should contact your doctor immediately.
I was diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer back in February 2010.
History:
Prior to the diagnosis I had felt a strange pressure in my stomach occasionally which started around October 2009. I probably should have gone to the doctor when I was feeling the swelling/pressure but I thought it was just from being cramped into the Miata I had just purchased. I bought the car because some guy ran a red light and hit my previous car.
Ultrasound negative for stones, normal upper and lower endoscopy, meds for IBS do not work. Currently taking Lansoprazole for reflux, but does not help much. No diarrhea, maybe some constipation. Got worse over past yr. Fatty meals do seem to make things a bit worse. GP orders Hida scan and ejection fraction was 22%. Hida scan did reproduce many of the symptoms, but they occured about 15 min after the scan was completed. So I have decided to go for the laparoscopy to have gallbladder removed.
i have had a headache just to the left of my forehead, and during the nausea/retching/diarrhea episodes, my skin becomes very clammy and i feel hot and like i'm going to pass out. the pain reaches a climax and slowly subsides. then i feel very tired. today i feel a lot better. what could be causing this? i have seen my doctor, who didnt know what the problem was, so I was given lansoprazole and domperidone for the nausea and i had a blood and stool test done.
Anyway, a month later, (yesterday) I was prescribed lansoprazole but I have done some research and it says lansoprazole can cause kidney failure. Should I take these tablets or wait till Friday and get a second opinion from the hospital on my assessment?
I am 61 and on Lansoprazole for acid. I used to suffer a lot from heart burn. Now I am taking this med every day the pain has gone down to my lower abdomen and at night. My sleeping is of very poor quality because of the pain which interrupts my sleep and eventually will wake me up around 3 am. When I wake up I will go flat on my back or into the fetal position and fart a storm....on and on some lasting a few seconds continuously, which makes me laugh at myself.
I had 3 operations in the first 5 years without success (it just came back) but a breakthrough came 4 years ago when my ENT specialist put me on lansoprazole, a PPI, believing that it was probably due to acid reflux (although I had no symptoms). The granuloma disappeared over the next 6 months.
However, it sometimes comes back, or at least the symptoms do, every few months, but go again after 2 or 3 weeks. But over the last week or so symptoms have come back with a vengeance.
pylori after having a breath test done, and have been prescribed by my doctor - lansoprazole 30 mg - metronidazole 400 mg - amoxicillin 500 mg. All three medacation taken twice a day for a 7 day course.I am now into the 5 th day of taking them.There seems to be no side effects, the problems of bloating,discomfort (painfull at times) that comes and goes througout the day,has not eased at all.
If these combanation of tablets were going to work,would my symptons have eased by now ?.
I wake up in the morning from nausea, not long after i get diarrhea, my whole pelvic area feels like its in knots, along with my abdomen. Most of the time i will retch for about 20 minutes throwing up white foam or stomach bile. Up until the middle of the day i feel really week, have no appetite, and cant eat without getting nauseous. Throughout the day i get horrible pains in my upper right quadrant. Underneath my right rib cage.
m back on Ranitidine as the side affects of Lansoprazole were unpleasant and just as bad or worse as the GERD. When I stopped taking Lansoprazole I had bad symptoms for a few days but they subsided. However since then my Acid Reflux / GERD has been more or less what it was before starting Lansoprazole. Some days its worse than others.
I've also read about the negative side effects of PPI drugs.
My doc prescribed me Lansoprazole gastro resistant as there has been blood in my vomit recently. Has anyone taken it or know anything about it?
So she went to the doctors and prescribed Lansoprazole. About a week and a half after the Lansoprazole was prescribed she started to shake. And for about a half a week now its been getting worse and worse. Now she is also having trouble seeing, and is experiencing ear ache's and headaches. While she is still shaking. What could be the issue?
m still not sure what my exact diagnosis was) I was fine and then a month later another food poisoning incident.(vomiting diarrhea) I recovered at home. After that I seemed to have been okay for a while.
Then I started to notice severe bloating and chest pain at night I was also becoming more weak and lethargic over the passing months. Sometimes upper stomach burn. This started to occur everyday. I visited a doctor who put me on Nexium for 2 months.

Paediatric i'm afraid! I have a 7 month old, who has delayed gastric emptying (t1/2 180) and was on lansoprazole, she developed faltering growth - from 6 wks slid down growth charts.

I know i should move on with my 85 day negative test thru CMIA for hiv ag/ab. I just forgot i took a drug with the name "JOVIA", i researched it and here are its stats:
Generic : Escitalopram oxalate
PPD Drug Class: Central Nervous System Drugs (CNS)/ Psychotropic Drugs/ Antidepressants/ Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRI)
Needs a Prescription: Yes
Indications: Listed in Dosage.
m 5ft 7. I have been taking the Proton Pump Inhibitor Drug Lansoprazole for my Hiatus Hernia/Acid Reflux for roughly 3 years now. I started with 30mg per day and the past year I had to up my dose to 60mg per day due to my severe acid reflux.
For the past 12 months I have been experiencing what can only be described as Fatigue, brain fog and exhaustion. It is the type that isn't helped by sleep, rest, or even suggested by my doctor, excercise. Infact the latter only makes it 10x worse.
Has doubled the dose of Lansoprazole which has not made too much difference really. I have completely adjusted my diet having bought fantastic book "Dropping Acid - The Reflux Diet Cookbook & Cure". The coughing is less severe and I am not doing the sleep apnea thing now, which is an improvement. Throat is less sore and have been drinking aloe vera. However, am now experiencing constant tight chest; sudden head pains, extreme tiredness; dizziness & hot spells.
