It makes my stomach hurt worse, what's the difference between this pill and Prevacid ## Hello, Jean! How are you? Prevacid contains the active ingredient Lansaprazole. The capsule in question is listed by Apotex as containing 40mgs of Omeprazole, which is a generic for Prilosec. Both, however, are the same type of medication. The FDA does list stomach pain as being a possible side effect of these medications, along with nausea, dizziness and flatulence. So, it could be that the Omeprazole is causing you more side effects than Prevacid did. Is there anything else I can help with?

Can you advise what category this falls in , is this a morphine based medication ? ## Hi Gareth, The only pill I've found that matches this description is a foreign version of Nexium, possibly from Taiwan. From what I can gather this pill contains (40 mg) of the active ingredient Esomeprazole. Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (brand name Nexium) which reduces acid secretion through inhibition of the H+ / K+ ATPase in gastric parietal cells. By inhibiting the functioning of this transporter, the drug prevents formation of gastric acid. It is used in the treatment of dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease (PUD), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD/GERD) and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Esomeprazole is the S-enantiomer of omeprazole (brand name Prilosec/Losec). Generic versions of Eso...

Pink round tablet white inside ,i400 on omeside nothing on the other side ## Dear Angela, I have a box of generic Ibuprofen 400mg tablets and they are colored pink on the outside, white on the inside and imprinted I400 on one side and nothing on the other (Presume I stands for Ibuprofen and 400 the tablet dosage). Ibuprofen is an NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug) and these ones are film-coated. They are used for pain, fever and reducing inflammation. The film-coated ones reduce GI tract problems for people when taking the tablets.

Has the color changed? For 9 yrs it has been the same color and now it has changed. What color should it be? I want to be safe. ## Hello, Margaret! How are you? What are the markings on it? That information is what would enable me to check for you. Can you please post back and clarify? The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach pain. ## I have 40mg pills now. What color should they be? ## I originally took omeprazole capsules 40 mg, with dark pink and light pink, just got changed to light blue and light orange. Is this normal

I have a pink/blue capsule with G232 G on it. I think it is Prilosec, not sure. Everything I have found gives a different color. ## Glenmark Generics lists this capsule as being orange and purple, they say it contains 40mgs of Omeprazole in a time released formulation. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence, and stomach pain. Colors can be subjective, though. Have you tried having someone else give their opinion? ## I have pink/light blue and peach-pink/purple capsules, and both say G232 G. Any idea what they are and what they're used for?

I need to make sure that the med i am taking is omaprazoline. it is a different color than the last ones. it is capsule form. two shades of pink.

Learn more Omeprazole details here. This is a generic, so it is manufactured by several different companies, so it is normal for each one to look different.

I've got a pinched sciatic nerve that has gotten progressively worse over the past 6 weeks. Finally went to an ER because the pain became unbearable. I had been trying yoga poses/stretches for the hamstrings. That really didn't help. I was in an ER yesterday, for about 5 hours or so, because after I had got up in the morning I was unable to move without excruciating pain in my right hip down through my right leg..I couldn't move on my own, and the paramedics that picked me up, OMG I was screaming and balling in pain.. Over the course of the 5 hours I was there in the ER, I got injected (through an IV) of FENTanyl 50mg (didn't help). About 40 mins later I got a shot of TORadol (30mg), didn;t help.. FINALLY, around 3:34pm, I got a shot of morphine.. OMG!! Was that the most...
