Is anyone taking Lansoprazole (I have been prescribed them as using Naproxen long term for arthritis pain)? If so, has anyone gained weight since taking it?

Lansoprazole and Weight Gain
Hi Denise, I used to take naproxen aswell as lansoprozle but I started bleeding from back passage and come off naproxen straight away , I was then diagnosed with ulcerative colitis so I would be careful with naproxen and I also gained a bit of weight but everyone is different .
That sounds just awful. Sorry to hear. Thank you for your reply. Best wishes to you.
I was on Lanzoprazole fo4 over 6 years but am now taking ranitidine in preference. There are a number of nasty side efffects with long term use so inform yourself of the risks.
Hi Denise
I take Lansoprazole, but it hasn't made me put on weight, but guess we are all different.
Yes I have put on a lot of weight and I know it's 'just' a case of reducing calories so GP says but it's been very sudden and not changed diet. I am eating less! I am on omeprazole as well for stomach protection. I don't take naproxen all the time - just when the pain and swelling gets bad.
