My husband has been on the above capsule for a week. When he eats acid fruit he vomits 3 to 4 hours later. feels okay after that. Is it the tablet and should he be avoiding tomatoes and oranges? ## According to a number of sources, there are "no known" interactions with omeprazole and food or beverages. However, nicotine, caffeine and alcohol can stimulate stomach acid or delay ulcer healing. Omeprazole belongs to a group of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPI). The proton pump is the site within the stomach cell where hydrochloric acid is actually made and pumped out into the stomach. The PPIs block the formation of acid in the stomach from 80% to over 90% if enough of the drug is taken. Because of this, I'm thinking that acid fruit would have some sort of interaction,...

I have been on Rabeprazole for over a year now and occasionally I get a large build up of gas in my stomach which causes considerable pain/discomfort, as sometimes burping is also difficult. Is this a common side effect or should I be concerned? ## Rabeprazole can cause some gas as a side effect, but if you're taking it every day and only experiencing the gas occasionally, then it might not be what's causing the problem for you. Learn more Rabeprazole details here. Thus, I'd suggest looking into other possible causes. Are you doing anything else different on the days you get gassy? Are you drinking more coffee, or soda than usual? Maybe just gulping drinks? Eating salad? Dark leafy greens? Or a lot of soft, yeast breads? Are you on any other medications? Do you have any othe...

Hi I took an antibiotic 3 months ago and have been suffering from it since. I have symptoms of Neuropathy and dizziness etc from this horrible poison. (metronizadole) I don't know if the toxins are still in my body since the doctors say they are long gone. However the damage is not. Do you think taking activated charcoal would benifit me and if so where would I purchase this and what would be the dose? Thank you for your comments. ## Most likely what happened is that you had a bad reaction to it and it might have caused permanent damage, in which case, activated charcoal won't do anything, because it will only absorb stuff that's actively in your body and being digested.

hi,had ibs symptoms for over 5 years now, tryed everything, changed diet, meal times etc. doctor not been able to help much. my break though came when i discovered charcoal tablets, no more bloating, no more trapped wind, no more running to the toilet , amazing !! but is charcoal safe long term? had no side affects but the results seem to good to be true any advice welcome ## I've done some searching and it seems that there has been nothing that proves long term use of it to be harmful, but there has also been nothing that proves it is safe, either. Since it's not considered an actual drug, it hasn't undergone all of the same testing and studies that they do. Have you tried asking your doctor if they know anything else about it? ## No.. I took activated charcoal daily for a ...

Hello i found a little peach colored pill with L 165 printed on it. Can anyone tell me what it is? ## I haven't been able to find a listing for this, but that is most likely because it is an over the counter product and those imprints are not required to be listed with the FDA. However, the L followed by 3 additional numbers is used by LNK International and they only manufacture over the counter products that are sold by various stores as the generics or store brands. Learn more OTC drug details here. From the color, if I had to guess, I'd place it as being one of their antacid products, such as a generic for Pepcid, which contains the active ingredient Famotidine, but I can't be certain that's what it is. Where did you find it? ## clonidine 0.3 mg

I found a pill bottle in my house full of these. They have no markings on them, and they are a bit powdery. They kind of resemble the 'black snake' fireworks, but I know for a fact that they are not. I'm thinking it might be carbon, but I got no idea. ## With no markings and going by that description, some type of carbon/charcoal would be my best guess as well. Learn more activated carbon details here. If you look at the images on Google, there are some that look exactly like that. It's hard to be certain with any product like this though, so the best thing you can actually do would be to dispose of them. What type of bottle was it? A pharmacy bottle? And if so, was it one of the older glass ones?
