She was dairy intolerant and I'm sure that the lactose bothered her. I've heard a lot of mom's say the same thing, even though their doctors tell them it's not possible. It's too bad that they aren't making the Prevacid powder packets anymore, because they were dairy-free. I hope your little one feels better soon!

Avatar m tn s wheat has been genetically altered and is very different from the wheat 2 generations ago) and a chapter in the book discussed reports from people that had experienced reductions in GERD symptoms after eliminating wheat. I have never had any issues whatsoever with glutten intolerance so I was skeptical but thought what the heck and gave it a try. After 6 months I now have zero GERD issues too - no heartburn, sore throat, indigestion, etc.
Avatar m tn People of all ages (including infants and children) can get it and may have green and/or mucous in stools, foul smelling stools, diarrhea, etc. (I had this at age 50 at the same time my mother, 81 at the time, had it....so I have read a lot about it and gone with my mother to multiple doctors. ) New research shows that Prevacid, etc. can upset the natural balance of bacteria in the digestive system and make a person more prone to C.

Avatar m tn i had purchased a 70 mg vyvanse pill, took 1/4 of it yesterday and the other 3/4 this morning, so today i was on about 50 mg. after school i was with my friend and started to experience terrible muscle contractions in my hands, forearms, feet, and calfs; i couldn't move my hands or feet AT ALL and it felt as if i was clenching those muscles as hard as i could and i could NOT stop this.

Avatar n tn pylori at that time. He put me on Prevacid and I have been on it untill about 6 months ago. The prevacid was no longer working that well so the doctor switched me to Protonix.
Avatar f tn Has anyone ever tried taking the Prevacid at night or in the middle of the night( 4 hrs prior to Synthroid) so that it is working when I do put food into my stomach? I just am fearful of interfering with the Synthroid.
Avatar m tn t know about the Prevacid, but you should have your testosterone checked. My husband fell in his early fifties, was a body builder and avid runner. When he fell he broke his back in 2 places. He was diagnosed with Osteoporosis, they started him on Testosterone shots (his was low), and within a fairly short amount of time, his bones were strong again. He has to take the shots for the rest of his life.
