Experiences with

Losec

I have severe RLS and severe PLMD I take the following meds; Losec (omeprazole) 10mg ( for GERD ) , Losartan 100mg ( for high blood pressure) Spironolactone 50mg ( for diuretic and heart) ) Levothyroxine 75mg for thyroid and Magnesium 375mg.

G.P. wants to prescribe me Omeprazole (Losec) as having some issues with pain in stomach area near bottom of left rib. This has been going on since Dec last year and I have had little success controlling it via diet by restricting or cutting out various food/drinks.

So I've been put on a short course of losec to see if it helps my asthma symptoms since normal asthma meds aren't. How long would the medication work to help settle symptoms? I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks.

I have been put on Losec for my reflux, which is particularly bad at night, but I am finding that it is making my IBS C much worse. As most will understand a fibre supplement only makes the bloating and pain worse. Anyone else find this with Losec and if so what did you do, please?

Initially, I was put on Losec because the doctors thought I had gastritis. My scope showed mild gastritis. However, I wasn't responding to Losec and my appetite became smaller and smaller.

How can you takes magnesium effectively if you also need to take Losec (Omeprazole)? I understand the Losec prevents absorbtion of Mg. We are encouraged to increase Mg intake to help the AF. Any ideas folks? Your help/thoughts would be much appreciated. Alan

[/i] [i]Proton pump inhibitors (known in Australia by names such as Nexium, Pariet, Losec, Somac and Zoton) work by preventing key pumps in the cells of the stomach that produce stomach acid from working.

At present I'm on anatriptline, zomorph, neproxin, losec, pregabaline, cyclizine to name a few and I'm still in pain 95% of the time I have my first pain clinic appointment next week and with fingers crossed hoping they will sort this amount of medication out as I feel like a pill popper.

I was doing some research on losec tablet which mu daughter was put on from a what I think more a chesty cold cough. Can any one give some advice on these pills.

I take losec with them but not seeming to control it.....

Warfarin side effects have been bothersome over 3 years despite stable INR, between 2.2 and 2.5 I recently stopped Losec / Omeprazol over last three months, to see if this caused problems but still have all the side effects with joint pain, vision, numb feet etc..

Unfortunately now the Naproxen is causing stomach problems and I cannot tolerate Losec either. If I have to give up NSAIDs as well I won't be able to get out of bed in the mornings as that is when the pain is at it's worst. Please can anyone else relate to these problems or maybe have any ideas?

Anyone ever taken lozec mups dissolvable omeprazole? Just wondered if they actually work for acid reflux doc has prescribed them cos I cant take the capsules

There is no doubt there has been a great increase in this condition, resulting in a great many patients having to take acid blockers such as Losec to control this symptom.

[/i] (My emphasis) Those of us with anaemia, particularly if we are taking medication to reduce stomach acid (e.g. proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole (Losec/Maxor, etc) should note the suggestion to [u]avoid drinking tea with meals[/u] and likewise those of us needing regular blood transfusions

i can get up in the morning take my losec with a small amount of water then work for 9 hours without drinking anything at all ( i can hear you all screaming) perhaps having a small glass of water at lunch time, 2 weeks ago i was at work i hadnt felt well but just had a cold i suddenly felt i would pass

I thought it was the acid reflux but even the Losec is not helping anymore?? I take meds the DR gave me but again only temporary relief - Ginger helps a little. The amount of Preg tests I have taken because I wake up feeling sick! And the constant peeing before and during my period – grrrr!

Losec. Lexapro. Prednisone. Micardis. Ostilin..ferra-grad C. Codeine Phosphate. If you know of this combination or parts of it, does it go up and up, or does it plateau. Is there any remission with Systemic Vasculitis? Any help would be warmly welcomed.

nature-thyroid iron vit c losec avemys nasel spray (steroid) loritadene (antihystemine). if i have to stop using any of the meds how long before the start of the test do i stop. any advice would be great thanks.
