Common Questions and Answers about Prilosec for gas

prilosec

Avatar n tn I also gas up if I get very hungry which makes it hard to eat and get my stomach full, which makes me gas up. I take two generic Prilosec every morning which helps, but I still wake up gassed up. After I get rid of the early morning gas, I belch quite a bit the rest of the day, but at least it doesn't nauseate me. I don't pass much gas, so it all appears to be in my esophagus and stomach. I had my gallbladder removed in 1974.

Avatar f tn So I tried zantac but it only took the edge off for a few hours. Yesterday I had enough, and called my doctor, he called a prescription for prilosec. And as of this morning, so far so good.
Avatar n tn Maybe some of this is related to fear and anxiety. Since you are having these feelings often now, you could possibly be afraid of embarrassing yourself around others.
4798447 tn?1359319344 t have HPylori If you plan on seeing a Gastro for HPlyori tests, stop taking any acid pump prohibitors for two weeks prior to testing, as Prilosec supresses the bacteria and may show up as a false negative, when you may have this bacteria in a dormant or supressed state.
Avatar f tn Decided to try using the restroom. Gas. Gas and more gas. Geez. False alarm had me a little scared. Happen to anyone else?
Avatar m tn I went back to my doctor and he told me that I could have an ulcer, so he gave me some prilosec that I am about to take for the first time on monday, I am waiting because I just started some other medication a couple of days ago and I do not want to overload my body. Does this sound like an ulcer? I am also dealing with constipation and am currently taking Miralax twice a day to go in the morning.
Avatar f tn I had horrible gas for a few days until I took a couple doses of probiotics. Cleared right up.
Avatar f tn i had to start takin prilosec 1x a day and its safe for.
Avatar f tn Have you tried Prilosec for GERD? I would give it a try even though they say you don't have it. Also, look at your diet, there may be something you are eating or drinking on a regular basis that is causing excess gas. Have you tried chewing a couple of Tums after eating? Since all your tests are normal, I feel it's food related and would look at that. Take care.....
Avatar f tn Hi I'm a 15 year old female. I'd consider myself quite active (I play soccer nearly everyday). But the past few months I've experienced a tightness in my chest and throat when exercising. My doctor thought it may be asthma, so I used inhalers for awhile, but we ran more tests and discovered the inhalers have not helped. I was sent to get my heart checked out, but everything was normal. I was told I have low blood pressure so I was recommended to take salt tablets before exercise.
Avatar f tn I am 55 years old. I do take prilosec for irritation on the esophogus from GERD. I did have an endoscopy done. I have had upper GI's done and all have come out negative. Any suggestions?
Avatar f tn I have had acid reflux for 11 years now and has been pretty manageable til recently I have been experiencing excessive burping, heart pain, stomache aches and gas with sometimes painful bowel movements. I was on prilosec otc and it does not appear to do very much for my symptoms. I currently do not have insurance and cant afford to go to the doctors for multiple tests. Is there any treatments that i could try or maybe a different medication to relieve these symptoms?
Avatar f tn what is safe to take at this point in pregnancy?
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed months ago with acid reflux and take prilosec which helps. 2 weeks ago I had horrible stomach aches and saw the dr. Since then, I've continued to have horrible gas pains and bowel sounds. She sent me for a Ct thinking it was an intestine inflammation...she found 2 large complex cysts one on each ovary. I had an MRI on Sunday and she called saying they found 2 small simple cysts on the left ovary and nothing on the right. I'm so confused!
Avatar n tn dazy401, I too am experiencing the same problem. Maybe we can shed some light on eachother's situation. Here's how mine started and where I am today. BTW, I have no history of any health problems. Out of the blue 2 wks ago, I started getting bloated and short of breath. It continued until it got worse 3 days later when I started to panic because I couldn't breath without taking a deep breath every few seconds. Chest X-Ray, EKG and D-Dimer tests all came back negative.

1348086 tn?1370783185 Tonight, about 45 minutes ago, I felt like someone was taking my stomach and intestines and twisting them in a knot and then I became nauseated. I took a Prilosec and some Gas X. I ate the same thing the rest of the family ate for supper and they are fine. I have 2 questions. Could this be related to the Cymbalta? I absolutely have a phobia to throwing up. My mom has Ondansetron that she takes when she is nauseated.
2169449 tn?1358489923 I actually saw my Ob yesterday and he told me I could use gas x pepcid prilosec to help the pain from the bubbles. I must admit I took gas x this morning and don't feel as bad.
Avatar f tn The medications I've been prescribed have varied from amoxicillin to Prilosec and dicyclomine. I don't believe any of these have worked but what I have done is tried to eat healthier. Typically at night when I try to sleep my symptoms become worse, also after eating I no longer immediately lay down. My bowel habits have also changed but I still use the bathroom everyday without problems.

Avatar f tn They had me on Pepcid and Prilosec before but my side effects were too bad
268911 tn?1213744781 I'm new to this forum and was wondering if someone might be able to tell me if abdominal pain, constipation and gas are side effects of PPI's. My neighbor is a doctor and prescribed me prevacid, I took them for 2 weeks, and began to notice these problems. I told him this and his response was "Prevacid does not have those side efffects." but when I search "Prevacid side effects" these symptoms show up on every page. ANy direction woudl be appreciated.
Avatar n tn You said you have been on prilosec for 15 yrs and also take metforminl. The info I read about prilosec suggested that it should only be taken short term. That it wasn't for long term use. Some possible side effects from Prilosec were: headache, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting and gas. Also, with the metformin...under the "less serious" side effects these were listed: mild nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, gas and stomach pain.
Avatar f tn Thank you for the answer! I have been off Prilosec for two weeks now so I can get an h.pylori breath test. I'm hoping it comes back positive so that I can get an answer for this pain! Thanks for the help.
Avatar n tn http://www.healthhype.com/sulphur-or-rotten-eggs-burps-belching-foul-smelling-gas.html What Are Sulfur Burps?The smell of sulfur (sulphur) or rotten egg burps comes from hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gas originating from sulfur-containing proteins in certain foods (see below) after they are broken down in the stomach or small intestine by sulfur-reducing microbes. These microbes may be normal intestinal bacteria or pathogenic bacteria.
Avatar m tn My doctor is suggesting to go for Nissen Fundoplication. Though, it has some side effects, I can go for it. But, my first question will be is my symptoms will lead to surgery and will the surgery treat my symptoms. When my first endoscopy is done, H Pylori found. Though, I took the 2 weeks treatment for H Pylori, will there be any possibility of the H Pylori not being eradicated? Once again, thank you so much for your help here.
