Avatar f tn The doctor prescribed Prevpac. This medicine is very strong and always have bad taste in my mouth. Now I have been taking this medicine for five days. I still feel pain in the stomach especially in the early morning time close to 5 am. My question is if I am having pain due to the bacteria then by taking this medicne when should I start feeling comfortable. Could it be I have some other condition?
519575 tn?1212079035 I just started my 2 week dosage 3 days ago! Each time I take the 4 pills I do get a lil' nauseated..but nothing tooo bad! But my main problem is that I have this AWFUL metal taste in my mouth! And the more meds I take the worse and stronger the taste gets. Is there anything I can do to lessen this?? Just that awful taste makes me very sick to my stomach! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Avatar n tn Along with the H pylori I have this weird body odor which smells slightly of ammonia and somewhat meaty? I have this weird taste in my mouth as well. I was taking a prevpac for 14 days and I thought that would take care of the weird body odor as well as kill off the pylori bugs. My stomach feels better but I still smell weird? I also have bright red blood in my stool with each stool. At this point I have no idea what's going on. My pancrease, liver, spleen, and kidneys are normal.
Avatar n tn My wife has what appears to be a digestive problem. She has suffered with it now for four months. We are on our second gastrointerologist without relief. Her symptoms are as follows: 1. Burning sensation and pain in the sternum area. The burning and pain comes and goes but is occurring frequently. 2. Burning sensation rising from the sternum area up the esophagus to her neck. However there is not regurgitation of stomach acid. 3. Constant metallic/bitter taste in her mouth. 4.
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, My mom was recently diagnosed with Hep C associated cirrhosis. She has had some complications, including esophageal varices and ascites. She remains fairly well compensated and does not exhibit symptoms such as fatigue or confusion. During an endoscopy her doctor also noticed an ulcer and tested her for H pylori (which was positive). He's prescribed Prevpac to kill the bacteria and heal the ulcer.
Avatar m tn I was hoping you guys could help me.I was having some minor stomach issues. swallowing was a little hard, so I went to the DR. We did a endoscope. He found: H. Pylori associated moderate chronic gastritis with some signs of intestinal metaplasia. Right now I'm taking the Prevpac (triple therapy) for the bacterium. Will this type of gastritis eventually resolve itself when the bacterium is removed?
619150 tn?1247048274 Colon was fine, was diagnosed with Gastritis. Was given PrevPac, while taking that I had upset stomach in morning. But after vomiting one morning that went away. Started to feel good again. Then PrevPac ran out... Started to feel ill again. Now on Prevacid. I was 220 lb when this all started in Sept. It lingered at around 195 for awhile when I was feeling better. Now I am down to 188. Is this normal?
1763947 tn?1334055319 An ulcer? Yikes. Have you tried a Prevpac for that? I tested high in h.pylori early on, so they had me stop my abx to take the Prevpac (which includes Biaxin and Amoxicillin.) It definitely reduced my stomach pain.
Avatar f tn i had it and cleared it in 4 or 8weeks by 2 antibiotics plus 1 proton pump hinibitor.
Avatar f tn I've been getting an awful taste in the back of my mouth for weeks now it's not a matalic taste but like a bad breath taste (that may sound strange but I don't know how else to describe it) it isn't a constant taste happens every few days and it's not helping with my sickness. Anybody having the same problem or know any solutions?
Avatar f tn I have the same problem, its almost like a bad after taste in your mouth after anything you eat. Mines sit in the back of my throat and it disgust me!!!. I've tried several things but no resolution yet!

Avatar m tn This last weekend it go so bad went to see a doc and was told I did infact have hpylori and that I need to take the prevpac etc. I don't exaggerate when I say I have trouble taking an aspirin. Medicine FREAKS me out. The birrage of pills this thing comes in.. holy cow.. and then I also have to take some protop pump inhibitor.. That much stuff CAN"T be good for you..
1806721 tn?1554333407 Hi, my doc put me on 14d Prevpac treatment today. I've been taking Prilosec during the past month or so to get my symptoms under control. It works quite well for me. I have never taken Prevacid before. Are these two the same thing? Can I use Prilosec to substitute the Prevacid in the pack? I'm scared of stopping Prilosec as my symptoms always get worse when I tried to wean myself off the drug in the past.
Avatar n tn My husband started on 14 days of prevpac 4 days ago and is now experiencing extreme lack of energy and tiredness--very hard for him to get up in the a.m. and he is exhausted by 2 or 3 p.m. Could this be a side effect of the drugs?

Avatar n tn I feel the antibiotic company is getting a good sum of money. Lots of human being are taken this Prevpac treatment. Accordingly to them it works but why it keeps coming back.
Avatar f tn soo all along in my pregnancy ive been producing so much silva and there is like a dull, stale taste in my mouth that makes everything taste weird.. is that normal? and how long untill it goes away?
Avatar n tn I have bad breath its so embarrassing and I'm so self conscious about it. I have been having trouble with my sinuses, however I have now have sprays that help a lot. I find that I get the bad taste every couple of weeks just after I've had sinus pain in my head. The thing is I also have a root filling and this is were the taste/smell comes from. Its really getting on my nerves now and i feel like I can't talk to people in case they smell it.
1218873 tn?1300091216 Amitriptyline is used for depression, chronic pain, sometimes headaches, and sleep so I would think its a good choice for some folks with MS. With some meds with bad taste it helps to swallow it in a huge gump of applesauce instead of water. Prednisone leaves a bad taste for me for hours and when I use applesauce I dont notice it.
Avatar m tn I had gasteritus but I finished my pills (prevpac). I have tightness in my left shoulder and it has a little lumb on the bottom of the shoulder. I have discomfort in my whole body and cant find relief.
