Druginfo symptoms and conditions

Hello,
have had partial gastrectomy for cancer nearly 5 years ago and was prescribed Omeprazole 30mg twice a day. I can say that I have not felt well since. I suffer nausea, pain eye problems and joint pains. Doctor says that Omeprazole cannot be the cause. I am going to stop taking it to see if symptoms improve.

From England 1998:

Montelukast

Montelukast (Singulair) is a leukotriene antagonist for use as an add-on therapy in patients with mild to moderate asthma who are inadequately controlled by inhaled corticosteroids and short acting beta2-agonists. Since it was marketed in January 1998, CSM Mersey has received 31 yellow cards detailing 47 suspected reactions to montelukast including:
• 15 (32%) CNS disorders including headache and drowsiness
• 14 (30%) GI disorders including abdominal pain and indigestion
• 5 (11%) skin disorders including sweating
• 7 (15%) musculoskeletal disorders including arthralgia and cramps
• 2 (4%) psychiatric disorders.
26 of these reactions were not listed in the Summary of Product Characteristics at the time of reporting.

ALL, if you are taking TOPAMAX for migraines you need to read the article in last year's Science News where doctors have linked the migraines to a heart defect that is common in women and once corrected the migraines go away completely. Long term use of TOPAMAX may be detrimental to your health. I recently posted: My wife is experiencing massive hair loss. She had a metabolic panel ran on her to ensure it is not thyroid and is scheduled to see a specialist on hair loss next week. I just came off the National Institute of Health website at www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/medmaster/a697012.html where they list hair loss as one of the problems with the drug. They recommend that you see a physician immediately. My Wife's hair was literally coming out by the roots and since her hair is naturally thin it won't be long before she is bald unless she can get it stopped.
