Questioning medication

[Proud_grandma]

Hello, I’m new to the forum so apologies if not relevant here. However, any direction would be appreciated. Here goes...

I’ve been taking 30mg of lansoprazole daily for over 10 years. I have now developed a dry persistent cough over the past two years. I have been prescribed a low dose of 0.5mg x 3 a day of Baclofen for one month. Only my 4 day and still no relief or improvement; only nausea and drowsiness. Can anyone relate to this treatment for GORD?

I have just increased my lanzaprazole to two a day as I was coughing and had nausea 24/7. I did not want to but it has certainly helped with both. I have Barrett’s Oesophagus and a hiatus hernia and I was not risking my Barrett’s if I was producing more acid. It may be worth a try to increase to see if that helps xx

Thank you Karjade. Certainly a consideration.
