prevacid

Avatar m tn My 4-month old daughter has acid reflux. She was prescribed Prevacid three weeks ago as she was still irritable after 4-6 weeks of Zantac. After she started Prevacid she was less irritable but developed side-effects including giving up napping during the day and green, mucus-like foul smelling stool (started this week). Oh yeah, she also has a milk protein based sensitivity. My wife is still nursing but has given up all dairy and dairy-like foods.
Avatar m tn The abdominal pain on my left and the right side has gone away but I still have like a burning/itch sensation going on. My stool has been yellow and loose during this time as well. I've also been burping a lot more too. I'm going to stop using the laxative and wanting to either choose Prevacid or Prilosec and not sure which is best.

Avatar n tn i have had bright red blood in my stool for a few days now but very little to no pain, could it be from my taking prevacid?
Avatar n tn I have been to see 4 different ENT doctors and 1 suggested LPR or silent reflux (when you look down my nose into my throat it does not present as LPR) - I have been taking 30 mg of Prevacid twice a day for 3 months to no benefit. I have had 2 separate 24 hr. PH tests - one off meds and 2 months later one on meds. I am not refluxing on meds and only refluxed at night off meds - not out of the ordinary range when I have no symptoms. I have also done all the lifestyle modicfications - i.

Avatar n tn Stool is yellow when travels throught the intestine fast. Originally, bilirubin that is excreted from the gallbladder into duodenum, is green. When bilirubin within the stool travels through intestine, bacteria change its color first to yellow and then to brown. When stool is traveling fast because of intestinal irritation from any reason, bacteria don't have time to change the color of bilirubin completely, so it remains yellow.
Avatar m tn Just wondering, this morning i had some brown/yellow stool, more yellow, consistancy of toothpaste. I do have acid reflux, i take losec for it. I re-started taking losec yesterday, however lastnight i did have chinese food and took a b100. Would that be what caused the yellow stool.

Avatar n tn When stool sticks in diverticula, bacteria may overgrow there, produce gas, and thus cause distension of abdomen. Diverticulitis is treated with antibiotics. Before that, you need a stool culture test.

Avatar f tn When bile output is diminished, it often first appears as yellow stool. If there is a greater reduction in bile output, stool lose almost all of its color, becoming pale or grey. If the onset is sudden, yellow stool can also be a sign of a bacterial infection in the intestines.
Avatar m tn After taking Prevacid, I gain my appetite back. The problem is, I have develope new symptoms after taking prevacid for 1 week. I am having very loose bowel movements, blood on the toliet paper when I wipe, indigestion, lower abdominal pain. Most importantly is I am having more frequent heartburn and chest pain, which I don't have when I am on the H2 blocker.
Avatar m tn Hello, So I encountered Hep C and posted positive for the antibodies. However, my pcr test came back negative. My doctor told me my immune system cleared the virus on it's own. She said come back in months to check my liver. So a few days after my results, I started a cleanse for a week ( pill format...senna,cascara sagrada, etc ). I noticed my stool turned a lighter brown....almost yellow. It freaked me out so I stop. I went in to my doc...she told me that was normal with the cleansing.
Avatar m tn Developed alternating yellow stool and yellow diarrhea 2 weeks ago. Have submitted stool to testing lab but it takes 48 hours to culture, and then get results. Now I have dark yellow stool, with what looks like red lines in it, almost like worms. Does anyone have any ideas. Also a dull pain in my lower left abdomin area. Have been to the dr, just having to sit thru the weekend without getting the results is stressful. Please help.
Avatar m tn I some times see undigested food in my more solid stool but like I said my solid stool is brown and there is no yellow in it at all, until it is dirriea and even then it is just a fluid that comes with my brown soft stool.
Avatar f tn //www.healthline.com/health/digestive-health/yellow-stool#causes. One thing on the list is actually stress. It can affect the absorption of nutrients leading to the yellow stool color. Other things on the list that may be examined for you are issues with your pancreas and gallbladder. Your liver as well. There is something also called Gilbert Syndrome that is related to the liver. So, please continue to look for answers.
Avatar f tn Since i have had nothing but diareha,some water,some yellow. The docs told me it was just my body getting use to the gallbladder out. I was taking immodium and it would make my heart rate go very high and i kept getting this feeling in my head of being spacey and not thinking clearly. in the last few months it has become worse and i have broke out in a rash.
Avatar m tn My stool is pretty soft and pale yellow with occasional diarrhea looking the same. The water in the toilet becomes slightly cloudy with that. When I have vegetables like broccoli etc, I can see its still pretty much the same as when I swallowed it (undigested?). I have had a lot of aching in my right leg which I am not sure is related but it seems to have coincided with the introduction of Lansoprazole into my life. What is going on? Too much PPI?
Avatar f tn I've lost everything I own due to mold. When I left house developed stools having from to hard to cut open yellow "knots" to bright yellow strings of bright yellow puss (that are released from inside of the stool) and it has a long "? THING ?" inside that's covered in yes a condom. textured coating.
Avatar f tn You likely have a varied diet and changes in your diet impact your stool. But yellow stool, sometimes called pale stool, can also indicate a number of health problems. 1. Liver and gallbladder disorders Cirrhosis of the liver and hepatitis reduce or eliminate bile salts that help the body digest food and absorb nutrients. Gallstones or sludge in the gallbladder reduce the amount of bile that reaches your intestines. Not only may this cause pain, but it can also turn your stool yellow. 2.
Avatar m tn Hello, I am being treated for an ulcer and am on Sucralfate (4 times a day) and Prevacid (30 mg a day). I am feeling so much better now, but my stools seem to be very very pale in comparison to what I feel is normal for me. I was wondering if the cause of this is due to one or both of these medications? I am a bit of a worry wart, and am nervous about it. Thanks.
