coming off Lansoprazole

Digestive health

Reading posts on this.   I was put Lansoprazole for nausea which doc said was caused by excess acid.   I never got any burning etc, just the sicky feeling.   I was on these for a few years but surgery advised people to wean themselves off due to side effects, including weakening bones and now I have osteoporosis.  I have come off them without any problems as yet.  If I feel a bit off, I take Ranitidine. Another soothing medicine is good old  Milk of Magnesia.   Also I have heard if you sleep on your left hand side, it should ease stomach problems.  You probably know this, but sleep on high pillows.  Hope these small suggestions help.   Nothing worse in my opinion that stomach problems

Angela have you tried simple CIDER vinegar. Try it for a while mix half and half with water or stronger. I had discomfort, excess acid and a superb cough that I could cough for Great Britain for maybe a year. All medication failed. You will not believe this but after less than a week taking cider vinegar it all vanished and has never returned. This was 6 months ago. I stopped taking the vinegar after about 10 days!

Thanks nicknames.  Actually hubby takes cider vinegar with honey for rheumatism. I shall try it !     My friend says cider vinegar gets rid of colds and coughs.

Great to hear you are off. Have a warm cup of garlic water once in a while this will help also.
