zantac

Avatar n tn I've been dealing with gerd issues for the last half year. Colonoscopy and endoscopy were negative. I did do a series of rolling barium stomach xray which did show my stomach was on a roller coaster ride. I've been on most of the meds for gerd, from Zantac to Nexium to Lansoprazole to Pantoprazole. In December I started to develope numbness in my left foot and right hand. (Last night I noticed my left anke was swollen.
Avatar n tn There can be side-effects with the use of PPIs - no drug is without side-effects unfortunately. They can include changes to bone density - more ease of fracture - and anemic states due to loss of B12 uptake. Changes in bowel habits and loose stools can be a result of the use of PPIs. If you cut down on acid, you cut down on the amount of food that's thoroughly digested and able to be absorbed. Those materials will cause changes in the output of the digestive system in a number of ways.
Avatar f tn I am now on OTC Zantac for other symptoms of GERD and cmclien you are eactly right! The nausea and the growling went away!! Nothing else has been diagnosed except a low Vitamin D. I am waiting for my endo to decide what to put me on (I already take 1000qd) Thanks to you all!
Avatar m tn worsened IBS - bad abdominal cramps (caused by Nexium together with fever and Zantac) a white-coated and burning tongue (caused by Prevacid, Zantac, Protonix, Pepcid, Riopan). I'd like to know if anybody has experienced intollerance to the various antireflux medicines similar to mine. Have you ever had a severely burning tongue caused by them?
Avatar f tn I was born with acid relfex and I've had it my whole life, the doctor I had when I was a baby overdosed me on zantac which caused me to have pulmonary, lung, and more stomach issues. So I'm wondering could that have long term effects because I'm still dependent on medicine to keep me from being sick and I wanted to know if there is cause for a malpractice suit?
Avatar f tn It seemed like the Prilosec just started to take effect and I started having all these side effects. The worst was the zantac where I got the second yeast infection. Luckily urgent care gave me a refill from the one after the antibiotics.
3150328 tn?1349627121 I first used carafate about 30yrs ago sort of before all of the newer drugs came on the scene, then it was Tagamet Zantac Pepcid and all down the line one good thing about carafate is it is not systemic with mostly minor side effects.
Avatar f tn Seaver, someone is 'fibbing,' and I don't really think it's me. Sign in to medscape.com - good site. Then query the drug section - you type in the med name and hit the little 'drug' category in the main Search box. It will take you to a list of the form that your drug can be purchased. Click the correct form (like: Verapamil oral), and you'll go to a page with a list of what the med is used for and side-effects.
Avatar f tn headache (may be severe);drowsiness, dizziness;sleep problems (insomnia);decreased sex drive, impotence, or difficulty having an orgasm; or swollen or tender breasts (in men);nausea, vomiting, stomach pain; or diarrhea or constipation so yes those are some of the side effects your having. I have the chest pains, tender breasts and dizziness it ***** to.
547002 tn?1219797376 I took/take Prevacid for 6 weeks and also have terrible side effects from it. Anxiety gone through the roof, muscle twitching in my throat, depression beyond believe. I was supposed to take 30 mg a day but because I had a really bad swallowing problem (turned out those were actually anxiety crampings of my throat) I took a few times 60 mg a day (morning and evening a 30 mg).
Avatar f tn As I adjusted to the meds and my viral load dropped 4 log. Nothing since then. I am on week 7 now. No side effects at all. Undetectable by week two. *** Report your side effect to your trial coordinator or trial leader. *** They need to document these for their studies. If you look at your trial paperwork it mentions headache as a side effect of GS-7977. I don't recall body aches, and fatigue. Hopefully what you are experiencing with disappear soon.
1088529 tn?1256844030 I've just started taking zantac, and I don't know if I'll have any side effects, or if my regular symptoms (stomach pain, upset stomach) will become apparent or come back. My question is this; if I get nauseous, stomach pain, upset stomach etc. as a side effect or other, can I take tums to calm my stomach down? Or will it just make things worse? I can't talk to my doctor because (a) don't have an appointment and (b) am too young to drive there or get an appointment myself.
Avatar f tn Tums and laying on my left side isn't working. It's the worst ever. What else can I take or do?
Avatar f tn I have read Clomid may result in autism in babies. Is it true? What are the side effects of clomid on baby?
Avatar f tn Hmmm, not everyone's side effects will be the same. In fact, you may not really have any side effects that you notice. My side effects were: racing heart - I lost about 5 lbs in 3 days. skin sensitive to the touch. feeling like I was beat up with a baseball bat on my back. shaking. and feeling like my achilles tendon was going to rip off. Just try to relax and take it easy. I hope all goes good for you.
Avatar n tn would Nexium pose the same problems for her?
290867 tn?1333569278 I just wanted to give everyone an update on everything with Julian. Since the last time I posted he has been put on Zantac for his GERD and acid reflux and when he began screaming in pain while eating they also put him on Carafate to help coat his horribly damaged esophagus! The next day after taking both meds he had the worst diaper rash and he is now on a perscription diaper rash ointment as well. He seems to be doing better but still in some pain!
208686 tn?1293030503 However, terbutaline is generally believed to have fewer side effects on the neonate than on the mother. A link with a list of neonatal side effects can be found here. 5. Don't all preterm labor drugs pose some risk? Yes, all drugs taken during pregnancy pose a risk. After considering your options carefully, only you and your doctor can decide if a preterm labor drug is right for your situation. 6. What are the alternatives to terbutaline?
Avatar f tn I get a sore spot on the right side of my neck/throat that comes and goes. Sometimes if I press on that spot on my neck/throat it's tender. I have also noticed sometimes when I bend over it feels worse. Has anyone else ever experienced this? My doctor wants me to start taking Zantac everyday which I am worried about due to possible long term effects of this medicine.
Avatar m tn In order to treat Acid Reflux/GERD I have been taking Ranitidine/Zantac per doctors advice. I started developing various side effects several months ago. To verify the side effects were caused by the ranitidine I would stop for a few weeks and use TUMS instead. I repeated this cycle several times. The symptoms would go away each time I was off the ranitidine for a week or so.
2101847 tn?1333564794 My doctor prescribed reglan too, but the side effects have me scared! Do you notice any side effects, and how often do you take it?
Avatar n tn In addition to what LivinginHope said first and then I wanted to add I was on Zantac 150 for about 4 months and I had no side effects at all. I have a benign arrhythmia (PACS) and so it depends on the person and if you take it long term. I have to go back on it again. But my doctor said not to stay on it all the time. Rather, to stay on it for a while then go off and on. But, I would definitely report this to your doc.
Avatar m tn What other meds is she on, the Zantac does sometimes have side effects like upset stomach ,does she still take that at times .?She may simply be a late starter , some light exercises holding her hands and pulling her up to sitting position,regularly . Place some toys near her but out of reach so she has to roll to grab them .. If you are concerned take her back and ask for an evaluation ..
