I was on Aciphex for 10 days (Samples only) i developed bowel problems but the Dr thought it was side effects fo antibiotics. Was off the med for 1 week and everything went back to normal. I am currently back on this for severe acid problems (Barretts) and the symptoms of yellow mucus and loos bowels are back. Headache, cramps. etc. After reading some of the comments i am not sure that this is right for me either. Only thing is that i am afraid to take any of the medicines and with out it this could become cancer. Any suggestions?

THIS IS A HORRIBLE DANGEROUS DRUG!!!!!
Doctors prescribed this to my mother for 5 years!!!! Because of it's devastating side effects it is FDA approved for short term 4-12 weeks and only as a last resort. And NEVER for Parkinson's patients. It is unclear if Reglan caused the Parkinson's like symptoms or if she had it prior. Either way the doctor was so wrong to prescribe this medication to her. She is completely disabled can't walk or even get out of a chair had a auto accident and falls one time a metal frame fell on her head causing a hospital visit another time she fell into cactus! I was horrified to learn that no one caught this error. Not one doctor or the drug store told my parents REGLAN could cause her to end up using a walker and unable to function even the simplest daily tasks and that these symptoms could be permanent.

I have been taking OMEPROZOLE for around 9 months for Barretts Asophegus reflux.
In general I was beginning to feel I was very ill with symptoms mainly: hot flushes, my face was burning for a few seconds, dizziness, stomach cramps top right mainly, feelings of diareah, and dry mouth.
Has anybody else experienced any of these symptoms... my GP is sending me for a scan on my Gall Bladder, but in my mind all these cramps are associated with Omeprozole... I cannot stop taking it or I get severe pain between my shoulder blades with reflux burning.

I have been on Doxy since the 29th for possible pneumonia/sinus infection-deep cough,swollen nodes sick for almost three weeks.
I am pretty healthy at 39 but got this whopper that wouldn't let go.
The doc prescribed this Dox 100mg,along with Prednisone. My cough is clearing up,feel better overall, but have had very vivid, chaotic, and scattered dreams.
A little GERD (I have Barretts Esophagous so wouldn't feel too much hburn) today, but the main issue was the pill, so strong I projectile vommitted three times yesterday, have had major runs, and dry skin.
It works best for me after food and loads of water/vitamin water, and staying very hydrated. I drink a lemon ginger tea to soothe my stomach.
Other than that I am in Arizona and haven't had any sun-sensitivity issues.
I have had a headache as well for two days, but the vomitting could have brought that on, I almost popped a gasket it was so sudden.
Well, it seems this one is a doozy, get all of the facts on it-especially the NO DAIRY when taking it...
Hope all readers feel better!
