Nexium And Arthritis

Updated

I have been given a prescription of Nexium for a gerd/reflux issue. However, since I've been taking it, it seems like my arthritis ( mainly in my hands ) has been hurting more and getting worse. Is arthritis inflammation or joint soreness a side effect of Nexium?

Have you been taking any other vitamins or medications with the Nexium? Although joint pain is not specifically listed as a side-effect (headaches are possible though), I am wondering if there are any drug interactions going on here.

Re: Nexium side effects reply from Roy. I am not on any other medication, however, I do take Vitamin C ( 2000 mg ), and Vitamin D ( 1000 IU ) daily.
