Side effect, NONE. i have had this shot for excema for the past 20 years. My dermatologist died last winter, and I cannot find someone to give me this shot. I have had NO adverse reactions to this shot and no doctor will give it to me. I have excema all over my body and the new doctor gave me a cream that i have to apply to the 'effected area' 4 times a day. I just dont see how i could strip down 4 times a day to apply it to my whole body when all I need is this shot ONCE a year.
I am sorry for those who had a side effect.

After taking Prilosec for about 4 years my prescription was changed to Omeprazole about 2 months ago (at the request of the insurance carrier, no doubt). About 2 weeks after starting to take it I noticed small bumps along my jawline and severe dryness to my facial skin along with itchiness. After consulting my doctor, she said it was just dry skin and told me to use a certain moisturizer and switch to Dove soap. Now, 3 weeks later, my entire face is broken out with the bumps, my face is red blotches and is extremely dry, flaky and itchy. I will be calling the doctor to be put back on Prilosec. I had none of these problems with it.

Hi my name is Jessica an I was diagnosed with Chrohn's on 3/4/08. I started with the Entcort for two weeks and that did nothing for all the pain and suffering that I had been going through since November. The put me on Prednisone at 40mg a day. I have been on it for about 3 weeks. After 3 day I noticed the moon face because I had lost so much weight because of being so sick for so long. I still hardly eat and am still losing weight. I can't sleep more then 3 hours at a time unless I take something to strong enough to help me fall asleep and if I sleep for more then 5 hours I will be up for the next 20 before I can even try to lay down. I have OCD which I have never had and cant stop cleaning when I feel up to it (kinda like this side affect). I have been haveing awful leg cramps and walking into stuff all the time. I forget what Im doing or were Im going. BUT the WORST PART is the ACNE... I am an Esthetician and I never had anything like this. I mean I have breakouts during the normal times ect... But this is bad an everyday there are more of them. I use really good stuff on my face to begin with an the things I would use on a client are not the same for treating acne that is caused from this drug so those things are not helping either. Right now my makeup covers it ok, but Im going to be on Prednisone for 3 more months before they will start weening me off and then going on 6-MP drug. I cant go 3 more months if this is going to get worst. PLEASE IS THERE ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHAT TO USE TO CONTROL THIS ACNE ????
