Do any of you experience reflux taking Ibrance.

I’ve had it for about 6 of the 10 months since I’ve started Ibrance.

Yup...and i chew a great deal of Tums!

Don’t know that i can blame it solely on the Ibrance though, as previous years of iv chemo weakened my stomach sphincter. But the reflux is considerably increased on ibrance. Thank goodness for tums! On the up side, my blood calcium levels would be even lower were it not for the Tums!

Yes- take pantapraze 40mg every morning for it. It helps.

Yes, they tried several things as I was also very gassy and have diverticulosis. I have 4 different prescriptions to take depending on where the root problem with the reflux started.

I had it too but didn’t want to take more meds so I started having warm lemon water or apple cider vinegar before eating. I also juice a head of celery and an orange every morning and now it’s gone.

Good morning sister/warrior. You need to follow an alkaline diet, especially if your blood type is O, or A. Drink alkaline water only. Add lemon to your water, and a pinch of baking soda if you don't have a high blood pressure issue. I eat by a book called Blood type diet, by Joseph Christiano. I had the worst acid reflux for years, even before my breast cancer diagnosis. There are foods that you wouldn't even know are acidic, and detrimental to your bodies optimal healthy function. Get the book if you can at the library, or any book store. XoXoXoXo

Not until a few months ago. It’s gotten pretty bad. Sometimes the pain is almost too much. I haven’t done anything about it, but as I am overweight with a mild hiatal hernia, which

makes it worse, I am eating less carbs and less food in general. If it gets worse I’ll have to seek treatment. Been on Ibrance 4 years. Ugh 😑
