I WANT KNOW IF PANTOP DSR IS TAKEN FOR LONG, DOES IT HAVE ANY SIDE EFFECTS ## All medications carry the risk of side effects, regardless of how long you use them.

Pantop DSR contains the active ingredient Pantoprazole in a time released formulation. This is a proton pump inhibitor that is used to reduce the amount of acid that your stomach produces. It is used to treat conditions such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, stomach pain and flatulence.

Hi there. I wonder if someone could ease my fears. I started taking lansoprazole two weeks ago. It's a fairly small dose of 30mg once a day. Although it's keeping the dreadful reflux in check, today my urine is literally fluorescent yellow...and I'm terrified!! I dont take supplements, or vitamins, I drink an adequate amount of water each day, but I do take some other prescribed medications for high blood pressure. These are Losartan, Tildiem, Bendroflumethiazide, and Ramipril. I feel perfectly well...apart from the panic over the colour of my pee :( I really hope someone can end my fears ## Hello, Capercaillie3! How are you? I didn't find it listed as a side effect for the Lansoprazole, but many blood pressure medications can cause that, as reported by the FDA. They can...

1. Oval White pill with SD on one side/OF on the other side 2. Round White pill with TSM 3. Light orange round pill with HMP on one side/MOL on the other side 4. Round White pill with Y. CIMETDN 200 on it ## Hi Mickey, Of the four pills you mentioned I've only been able to find clues on the last one marked with "Y. CIMETDN 200". I suspect based on the spelling, that this particular pill MAY contain 200 mgs of "Cimetidine". This drug is indicated for use in treating symptoms of GERD (such as heardburn, acid reflux, gastric ulcers, as well as some stomach disorders). Unfortunately the other tablets still remain a mystery to me. However, if you're able to, I would encourage you to try and get the pills analyzed by a lab so you can be 100% certain of what you have. I...

It is possible, but there's no way to be sure, since so many other things could also cause these symptoms. Have you been ingesting more acid foods or beverages recently? Are you on any other medications? The FDA lists the typical side effects of Lansoprazole as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain. ## I've been on the medication for over two years and have a constant irritation of my taste buds with oversensitivity especially to cold liquids or ice.

White Oblong Pill with "TEVA" on one side. The other side is scored with the numbers 22|10. I need to know what this is, there is a lot of children in my neighborhood. ## Hello, Lisa! How are you?

I'm currently prescribed 4 sucralfates per day, and 2 omeprazole. The instructions for sucralfate state do not take any other medications within 2 hours of taking this. This makes the windows for taking this extremely small. Is it okay to take both sucralfate and omeprazole together if I ever fall behind? ## Hello, John! How are you? No, it is best to follow the instructions provided with the medication and not take it with anything else. The Omeprazole may affect the absorption of the Sucralfate. Sucralfate is used for the short-term treatment of certain intestinal ulcers. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dizziness and constipation. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that's used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach. Its typical sid...

I found a round pill with a 30 imprint on one side it is white with peach or pink specks through it. ## I'm confident the round pill you found (light peach or orange round tablet with specks and a 30 imprint on one side, nothing on the other) is a 30mg Prevacid solutab. Typically perscribed for patients with acid reflux symptoms. Can be filled by pharmacist when the black and pink capsule is unavailable, but the solutab is generally 10 times more expensive than the capsule. ## My boyfriend has a toothache and his face is swollen. I gave him these black and pink pills with n 30 on them that I got for my crohns. Do you think they will help?

This is the number to the company that makes Zantac: 1-203-798-9988. Demand to talk to the company nurse. She told me three times yes Zantac causes methamphetamine to show up in your system now. Now get up off your bursts and fight back. Go to your local pharmacies and demand that they put it back behind the counter where it belongs. Make signs, let people know!
