Pages: 1 Do PPIs help or hurt?       #312462 - 08/02/07 11:25 AM Edit Reply Quote chitowngirl Reged: 08/02/07 Posts: 3 2 doctors think I have IBS with some acid problems but I'm not quite sure. I was on Previcid and ended up getting nausea and chest pain. Anyone else have this problem with a PPI? Prilosec also didn't work.

I also have rheumatoid arthritis and the meds I take for that are the culprits. I had a gastritis flare while on Prilosec (per an upper endoscopy) and am now on Nexium (and carafate as needed). Prior to all of this, several of the other PPIs caused nausea and diarrhea. Nexium is currently the strongest and my insurance co didn't want to pay for it. But, with a letter from my MD, they do. Good luck, Traveler Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
