Zantac gastritis

Common Questions and Answers about Zantac gastritis

zantac

Avatar m tn I took Zantac because I had gastritis symptoms. Now I hear that Zantac causes cancer and wished I never went to pills for relief. How long does it take for cancer to appear after you've taken Zantac? I've heard the NDMA in Zantac causes full body cancers in every organ.... This seems like a intentionally made drug to induce cancer.
Avatar f tn I have been diagnosed with chronic gastritis. Symptoms are - acidic horrible taste in my mouth as what started this, occaisonal mucous in throat that makes me cough, iron belly with slight occaisonal burning. Started taking Pantaloc and than Zantac. Pantaloc caused me to run to the bathroom. Zantac seems better but doesn't really do much for the acid taste in the mouth and rarely helps the stomach. Endoscopy was doen to confirm the gastritis. I guess what I really want to know is.....
Avatar f tn had thyroid checked becuz I nhad went into ER due to side effects from Nexium...... Made me feel even worse anxiety, etc. I am currently on Carafate and Zantac (which I think may be making me feel kinda bad too). I have gastritis and acid reflux. Here is my current lab for thyroid (total thyroidectomy 5yrs ago) TSH 0.14. (0.27-4.20) FREE T4. 1.45 (0.93-1.70) Lab a couple of months ago TSH 0.22 FREE T4 1.36 I'm currently on .75 levo and Dr. just lowered it to 50.

Avatar m tn So the news broke last month that Zantac has high amounts of ndma in it. Ndma is used in lab rats to induce cancer. How are they giving this stuff to millions of people for 40 years and just now finding it out? Surely the makers knew from day 1 that it could convert to ndma? I took this for several months and took 24 pills of it for gastritis like symptoms. I also have mental health issues.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with acid reflux and gastritis. I was on Zantac for a while and was taking natural supplements. When all this started, I couldn't eat over 600-900 calories a day. I was 230 pounds (I am a 41 year old female) when it started and after two months I got down to 207 pounds. Two weeks ago, most of my pain went away and I started eating normally again and the acid reflux was controlled through diet. I have not lost any more weight.
Avatar f tn A glass of.milk will settle it too... But.I take.
Avatar f tn I got severe muscle cramps as side effects from that and went back to the urgent care and they gave me zantac instead. Still the same dosis of 2 /day. It all started end of June 2015. The dr eho prescribed zantac also mentioned it could come from the gallbladder but there would be no test to confirm that now (super weird reading all about it now). In September 2015 I had an egd done and the dr confirmed the gastritis. I had no ulcers and no bacterial infection.
Avatar f tn It started with heart palpitations and vomiting, then i had abdominal or gas pain. stomach feels uncomfortable after eating.i went to a physician and he prescribed me zantac. i also had my blood checked for a deficiency in anything. results were norma except that i had a UTI infection. now i'm on zantac and an antibiotic. unfortunately i'm struggling with extreme fatigue upon standing, rapid heart rate some coughing and sometimes dizziness. This has been going on for three weeks.
Avatar m tn am on kapidex PPI and zantac 300 for the gastritis......had fundoplication in May and still have pain every day........am really getting discouraged.
963268 tn?1312900315 Today, I take one Prilosec, 20-mg, and I have no pain. If you have gastritis and are not taken medication specifically for gastritis, your stomach lining can become worst, and you might develop an ulcer. If I were you, I would require your doctor, not his office staff, to confirm whether or not you have/had an ulcer caused by H. pylori? Also, inquire whether an acid reducer like Prilosec, Zantac, Nexium, Prevacid is prescribed for you?

Avatar m tn Did you ever heal form your Gastritis? I can't take Nexium or Zantac or anything like that because it causes me bad reactions. How did you heal?
Avatar f tn i am on daily meds like; losec 40 mg /ulcogant / and zantac . is this really only a severe gastritis? or something else going on? like can this be bile duct obstruction ? since i don't have a gallbladder? please help !! any more sugestion?
Avatar m tn About 3 months ago I was violently sick on an empty stomach and after that started getting stomach pains, I felt like I had damaged something during the vomiting. I was diagnosed with gastritis and tried ppis which didn't help, then some homeopathic remedies and now on high strength Zantac which helps a little. I pretty much have a moderate stomach pain all the time which gets worse with any irritating food so I have been sticking to a bland diet.
Avatar n tn Here is my story. I'm 23 years old and I've never had a single health problem before this. I've never been to a doctors office besides broken bones when I was in sports so this "sickness" stuff is taking a tole on me because I'm not use to it. I was miss diagnosed 3 times before they tested for H.pylori...
Avatar f tn Nothing works for me ! I went to my Dr yesterday and she prescribed me sofran 8mg and zantac! And it seems to help me a lot!! But I still burp very often!!!!
4121556 tn?1350428560 I am taking Prevacid but sometimes wonder if it has any effect on my irregular beats. I was on Zantac for about a year, then my anti-arrhythmic meds had to be increased and I had to go back to a PPI. I will try the gaviscon and see if that helps. Do you know if it interacts with warfarin? It seems many drugs do. Stress (lots of adrenaline) brings on my af episodes, as well as caffeine, spicy food, too little sleep.
Avatar f tn I am taking Carafate for a gastric erosion with gastritis. All of the ppi medicines failed to help. How long should it take to see an improvement in symptoms with Carafate? I've only been on it for 4 days so far. I usually have pain everyday and have been dealing with this for about a year now.
Avatar f tn Has anyone experienced Acid Reflux, Lactose Intolerance & Gastritis all at once? I've been put on a restricted diet due to all 3, this is my 3rd baby & I have NEVER experienced any of the 3 issues before.
Avatar f tn Hello, The symptoms that you are having can be due to gastritis or subacute intestinal obstruction. Eat small nutritious meals at frequent intervals instead of a heavy single meal. Exercise frequently and take your dinner atleast 2 hrs prior to bedtime. Also raise the head end of the bed by 2 blocks.Eat more of fibres and drink plenty of liquids. For now, pls take some antacid like Maalox and Mylanta or OTC medications like zantac or prilosec.
5285867 tn?1365993292 Looney, although the term bile reflux gastritis is still controversial and it has not specifically implicated in 'gastritis' it is known to numbers of individuals who experience it and to doctors who are seeing it first-hand more and more frequently.
Avatar f tn Tums have been considered one of my meals a day I eat so many of them for heart burn. My doctor also said zantac works great for heartburn, although I havent taken any for my heartburn.
Avatar m tn Hi, I have been battling with terrible nausea and gnawing stomach pain for the last 8 monthes. Gastritis is most likely the cause of this. Gastritis was diagnosed during an endoscopy I had 4 months ago. Because I had pain under my right rib, I was also tested for gallbladder and other digestive problems. I had an ultrasound, abdominal CT scan w/contrast, gastric emptying scan, Hida scan and an EGD. All tests came back normal except for EGD which found gastritis in my antrum.
Avatar f tn I had my upper endoscopy in 2010, April, because of my upper stomach pain. Dr. found I had mild gastritis I was breastfeeding, so I waited till 2011, around July to treat my gastritis. Dr. told me to take Prilosec, which I did for 1 month. Somehow, my short of breath seems to be related to stomach discomfort, although I was diagnosed with asthma in 2009 when I consulted my breathing difficulty. I am sorry English is not my first language, so I can't really express everything I should.
