Mediation advice to try and solve inhaler's issue

3 Replies

I just realized I have a problem with my lansoprazolee mediation to control my acid regurgitation, heartburn. Which is believed to be what I am suffering with. I have been getting a burning sensation in the top of half of my lungs I need to eat with it at least half an hour to an hour after taking it but I am not always hurgry.

Also has anyone used lansoprazole? I am on 15mg for 30 days

You may need to increase the dosage if 15mg is not working. I would have a chat to your doctor. The effect of the tablets if taken every day last longer than 24 hours surprising acid, so its possible you need a higher dose.

I have not started them yet. I was going to start them when I started my new inhaler as I got a prescription near the end of my inhaler I am using now. I am wondering if anyone has had this before and if it helped them

It helped me at first, especially when I was on prednisone. Ranitidine helps more.
