I have been taking Erleada Tablets since July 7th 2020 and I have had a upset stomach everyday . Doctors have no answer for me . I need info from people that use this medicine.

[Jpl506]

Been taking it since April 2020 with no problems myself but everyone is different.

[Bradley73 in reply to Jpl506]

Do you take your pills at a certain time?

[Joecarver in reply to Bradley73]

I take omeprazole 2 times a day 1hr before a meal.I

[Bradley73 in reply to Joecarver]

[Bradley73 in reply to Bradley73]

[Joecarver in reply to Bradley73]

20 mg

[Jpl506 in reply to Bradley73]

All 4 every day with lunch.

Several months ago when yet another pill was added to my daily intake my Dr. automatically prescribed omeprazole/Prilosec to go with all my pills to minimize upset stomach.

[Bradley73 in reply to CAMPSOUPS]

I take 4 Erleada daily with oatmeal, still feel upset daily.

[CAMPSOUPS in reply to Bradley73]

The omeprazole/Prilosec isn't too heavy duty in fact it can be purchased over the counter. Not recommending but in my case I would try it and if it works tell your dr. and ask for a prescription for it so you don't have to pay full cost.By the way oatmeal upsets my stomach.

My husband takes his at 8pm every evening with no other meds. We have usually eaten an hour before.

I’ve been on Erleada since Dec 2019. 4 pills at 10 pm each night. Never had any stomach problems. I did get a rash that was taken care of with creme early on. The hot flushes and fatigue are livable.

[Bradley73]

Are they still working for you

[Chadsdad in reply to Bradley73]

Yes, last ultra sensitive PSA test was <0.014 and T was 4. I started with a 22.3 PSA and a 4+3=7 Gleason score. Had RP, prostate bed rad and 13 lymph nodes removed. PSA would not get below .5. Axumin scan found 3 more nodes positive and I started the Eligard/Erleada cocktail. Last scan did not pick up the 3 positive nodes.

I've been taking them for 2 years with the hot flashes/joint pains being the main problems. I take them in the evening after supper. I agree with the Prilosec/Motilium combination for GI upset issue.

Were you eating oatmeal in the morning before you started taking Erleda?Oatmeal does a number on my stomach just saying.

I’ve been taking Erleada for a year, had to reduce by 1 pill because of dizziness. No rash, some fog and tiredness, I blame that on 6 month shot of Lupron. Walk 3 1/2 miles 5 days a week and ride a cart when I play golf the other 2 days. It took awhile to feel good.

I have taken Erleada for 2+ years with occasional mild nausea. Be sure to take it with food. Ask your oncologist for alternatives. Best of luck!
