Make it go away. The rash on my hands is beyond belief since I was prescribed Pantoprazole. I am using fresh aloe and it only provides temporary relief. I just want the rash to go away. I have a weak auto-immune system and it looks like I cannot fight this one off. ## Hello, Marsha! How are you? It isn't normal for a rash from a systemic medication to be isolated to just a certain area of the body, such as your hands. Have you been exposed to anything else new? IS the rash itchy or just a red noticeable rash? Have you consulted your doctor? Are you on any other medications?

I have had 2 panic attack episodes after taking prescription drugs. The first was after taking the second pill of erythromyacin and the most recent was after taking protonix. My anxiety lasts for very long periods of time. I would like to know if anyone else has had a problem with panic attacks or anxiety attacks while taking prescription medication. ## YES, I HAVE SUFFERED FROM ANXIETY & PANIC ATTACKS FOR YEARS.& I JUST LIKE YOU, IF I START A NEW MEDICATION I GET STRONG ANXIETY ATTACKS- THE REASON WHY- IN 1989 WHEN I WAS 3 MONTHS PREGNANT THE DOCTOR KNEW I WAS ALLERGIC TO 1 MEDICINE FOR NAUSEA & I GOT A SHOT OF ANOTHER MED HOWEVER IT WAS IN THE SAME FAMILY AS THE 1 I WAS ALLERGIC TO.

docter prescribe aciloc 150 for pain in my shoulder...is it useful....? ## Hello, Niti! How are you? From what I can find, Aciloc contains the active ingredient Ranitidine, which is an antacid, so no, it will not do anything to treat shoulder pain. Where you prescribed anything else with it? Its side effects may include nausea, dizziness and stomach pain.

How long does the side effect last of the drowsiness. The tablet make me very sleepy ## Pantocid contains the active ingredient Pantoprazole, which is a proton pump inhibitor that's most commonly used to help reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach.

Very tiny white round pill with a capital A on one side and 75 printed on the other- ## idk ## i found the same pill small round white with 75 and @ sign with k init, was thinking the worse of course and searched the whole flat to find out that it is an indigestion relief pill called ranitidine. hope this helped. ## The white tablet with an actual capital A and the number 75 on the opposite side is actually a 10mg Hydroxyzine tablet, a generic for Vistaril. It's an antihistamine that's used to treat allergic reactions and for its sedative like effects, thus most of its side effects are linked to that and can include dizziness, drowsiness and sedation. You can learn more Hydroxyzine details here. The one mentioned by Krose is actually tan or grey color (there are 2 that contain...

I have not been able to find a medicine that helps with what my doctor thinks is Gerd. The last medicine was protonix and within 21/2 weeks I am having side effects. Ankles are spasming as well as hands however I have spondilosis. I have never had spasms in these areas until protonix and I still have food that gets stuck and continuous hiccups. My doctor put me on 400 mgs of magnesium. Any answers or opinions? ## Hello, JLM! How are you doing? It isn't actually that food gets stuck, though it does feel like it. It's esophageal erosion and irritation there. Sometimes you swallow something that irritates it and gets it acting up, so it feels like there is a lump there, but there actually isn't. And yes, that is a sign of GERD. What other medications have you tried? I had many ...

I was diagnosed In February this year with a haemorrhaging stomach ulcer. Biopsies showed no H-Pylori and no cancer but some baterial activity. I have no typical ulcer symtoms no pain and no acid reflux. I have been treated with anti-biotics and flagil plus a blood transfusion in February and again in June on account of red blood cell count being below 7. I have also been on Topzole since February and the dose of Topzole has been doubled since June. Since I do not suffer from acid reflux is Topzole the correct drug for me? I am 75 years old and am now worried about breaking bones. I am a bit dizzy, with itchy skin and often have hot flushes. Can hot flushes be side effect of Topzole? PLEASE could you advise me as to what I should do. With thanks and gratidude Deanna ## Hello, Deanna! Ho...

Voice box spasm. Caused by pantomerozole ? ## Did you mean Pantoprazole? And how do you know it was a spasm of the voice box? Has this been confirmed by a doctor? If you're taking something to treat excess stomach acid, are you sure you didn't just experience a bad bout of GERD?

What pill is pink in color, triangular in shape, and has a Z on one side? ## Hello, I realize this thread is more than a few years dated... but if you haven't been able to ID it yet, I'd be curious to know if there are any other imprints on the tablet besides the "Z" on one side? I only ask because I came across a couple very close matches online that would otherwise fit your description, aside from having another number embedded on the other side. (For example: if there is a "75" on the other side, it could be Zantac 75mg). However, I'm just not seeing anything with a "Z" only. Is this something you found locally or bought from overseas perhaps? Looking forward to hearing back from you if you're still subscribed to this thread.

I have an duodenal Ulcer in my stomach and when ever I have to take any inflammatory medication I always take altosec just in case,I have slipped discs at the bottom of my spine which has affected my right sciatic nerve from my hip down to my big toe.I walk every day to keep myself mobile, only take medication when really necessary and just want to verify whether it is better to take after or before a meal ## Hello, Beryl! How are you? You should take the Altosec before a meal, that way it actually has time to start working by the time you're digesting your meal. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, stomach pain and flatulence. Is there anything else I can help with?

our doctor said that iselpin should be dissolved in water before taking (as in effervescent tabs) but literatures do not say so. what is the correct way? the tablet doesn't look like an effervescent one. how many forms does iselpin have? ## Iselpin contains the active ingredient Sucralfate and it is normally used to treat active ulcers.
