Common Questions and Answers about Prilosec and yellow stool

prilosec

467797 tn?1216211257 I have Ulcerative colitis (for 21 years) acid reflux, Diverticular disease and IBS. I've been on Remicade for 1 1/2 years and Colazal for 6 years to control my UC and Prilosec for my acid reflux. In the past I would have sporadic bouts of acidic yellow/green diarrhea but it never last long nor did I have any unusual symptoms associated with it. I've mentioned it to my GI but he never said much about it.
Avatar m tn I have been diagnosed with gastritis and gal stones as being the root of the problems. This morning I went to the bathroom and my stool was green and brown in color, but some was coated in a yellow liquid. Should I be concerned? I'm going to the Dr. on Monday, but I was wondering if there was an urgent need to go on in? I'm taking 2 prilosec(20mg) everyday, and last night i took a bentyl(20mg).
Avatar f tn So far bloods have come back normal and stool samples. I am soo tired and down from feeling like this all the time yet no1 seems to be able to help!!Any ideas any1!!!????
Avatar m tn Yeah I've seen that link but I've also read yellow stool can be caused by viral infections. My doc said thei theory on my enlarged spleen could be that I have strep virus internally since I just got over it and didn't finish the last 5 days of antibiotics. But I was over strep 8 weeeks ago and I've been battling this fatigue pain and yellow stool for over 6. Weeeks.
Avatar f tn Thank you for your quick response. I've been taking prilosec off and on for 7 months (the length of my mysterious illness) BUT I've only been taking it 2x a day faithfully for about a little over a week. I've been trying to eat better Examle. No spicy foods, not eating anyting real solid 3 to 4 hours before sleeping except maybe a popcile. Trying to lose weight and exercise and trying to lay off the caffeine and carbonated bevereges(which is extremly hard for me but Im doing it.
Avatar m tn ve had upper abdominal pressure that the doctor has said is just excess stomach acid, prescribed Prilosec and sent me on my way. That worked for a week, felt fine, but then the pain started to come back. Went back to the doctor for her to tell me it's still the same thing, but instead having me take Prilosec in the AM, and Zantac in the PM. Right after I started this regimine, I became constipated, but no pain or anything. Just like a decrease in bowel movements.
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 The mucus is clear to yellow. The stool can be clay colored to light brown and is normal textured. Approx 75% of the stools float. Some days I can have 8-10 BM's and other days none. But I go no more than 24 hours without a BM. I have been getting increasingly worse discomfort and occasionally pain in the left quadrants. Bowel sounds are normal and very rarely hyperactive. Sometimes the pain is felt closer to my bladder.
Avatar f tn I have a 3 year old dog that is believed to be having acid reflux. Her Vet did have her on Pepcid AC, but she was still having some issue's, so now she is on Prilosec. Here's the symptoms she was having: Acting like something was caught in her throat, gulping, licking her lips, burping, passing gas, not wanting to eat very much & then vomiting up yellow bile. (My dog is with me 24/7, & is NEVER out of my sight.

560753 tn?1216052052 After that he prescribed me with Nexium, Prilosec and that was it. I was ok for a month or so and then I developed constipation. So I was switching from diarrea to constipation on and off. The burping continue and it seems to happend before I get my period. Is 5:41 am and I got up because of gas in my stomach and diarrea. I haven't being able to have a deasent night of sleep for the past 4 days. That happens every month. And I just don't know what to do.
Avatar m tn Just the bloated full feeling and sometimes acidic feeling and the white pieces in my stool. Sometimes there are more white objects sometimes less, sometimes more faded. My stool is in itself not white, just pieces of things in it.
Avatar n tn Hi Jexbo, Yellow stools is normally a sing off the stool passing through the Colon to quickly. When the stool starts of it is either yellow or green, and the bile that the liver produces then turns it to its brown tyoe of colour. If it is passing through to quickly, the bile cannot interact with it, therefor causing the colour to remain unchanged. Also, Malabsorption is another reason for the stool staying yellow.
Avatar f tn ive searched online for a lot of things involving yellow stool and i would find many things like parasite or bacterial infections or had to do with my enzyme count .. i dnt want to keep annoying the hell out of the doctor because i feel like they are alreadi annoyed by me lol .. but wat can i do .. i just wanna go back to normal i would always see this thing to take digestive enzymes because it will let your stomach actually aabsorb the food you eat instead of retain it ..

If I sit for long time I experence some wetness in my anus followed by fishy smell. I am not alcoholic neitther I take coffee still I have this problem. Even my best friends fom school tease me indirectly by passing comments about it and so do my college classmates.
Avatar n tn Is the yellow stool associate with teethting?
Avatar n tn It is now February and this has been ongoing every three to four weeks (about six times now) since the end of November. The Doctor has run some blood, urine and stool samples and has come up with nothing initially. They told me today that they want more blood work to check her immune system and also referred me to take her to the Children's gastro dept. for a "scope". I have no idea whats causing this and noone else in my household is "catching" it.
Avatar n tn Ask your doc to run some stool samples (to start) to check for the presence of any unwarranted 'critters.' You may also want to consider/look over any meds you might be taking to see if they could cause the problem. Yellow stools can also come from gallbladder related issues, however the pain associated with that is typically upper right quandrant. Check your diet and see if there are any foods that seem to make the situation better or worse.
Avatar m tn Another possibility is an inflammatory bowel condition (Crohn’s, IBS, celiac, ulcerative colitis), but this is less likely as you do not have any bowel problems. However, if your stool consistency varies and you have alternate loose and tight stools then inflammatory bowel conditions should definitely be looked into. Food intolerance is another possibility. So, you need to consult a doctor and rule these out one by one by appropriate tests. Please try an appointment with a GI specialist.
Avatar m tn For past couple of weeks have been having alternating yellow stool, and yellow diarrhea. And pain lower left abdomin. Went to the ER, they said nothing to worry about. Went to gp doctor, and he ordered stool samples, but will not get results for up to 48 hours. now have developed occasional chills, once or twice a day. and lite colored foamy urine.

Avatar m tn Over the past 30 days, I've had bloating, loss of appetite, weight loss (12-14 pounds), loose bowel movements that float and occasionally have chunks of food in them- today and once before the stool was almost yellow (also have intermittent "normal" movements too), stomach aches, reflux/indigestion (some burning, mostly feels like bits of food in my stomach, esophagus and throat- I'm taking Prilosec twice per day) sometimes worse after eating, when I do have an appetite I'm
Avatar f tn Foods that can worsen GERD symptoms include peppermint, fatty foods, alcohol, coffee, and chocolate. Yellow stool can also result from insuffient bile output. Bile salts from the liver gives stool its brownish color. 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.
