Prilosec
Prilosec is a medication primarily used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach and duodenum ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which work by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach.
How is this medication used?
Prilosec is usually taken before eating, once a day, with the dosage and duration depending on the condition being treated. It's important to follow the prescribing doctor's instructions closely and not to take more or for longer than recommended.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects include headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, gas, constipation, and fever. Serious side effects can include kidney problems, lupus, bone fractures, and low magnesium levels. Contact a healthcare provider if serious side effects or allergic reactions occur.
What are the potential interactions?
Prilosec can interact with several types of medications, including digoxin, certain antiretrovirals, warfarin, and drugs that are affected by stomach pH level changes. It may also reduce the effectiveness of clopidogrel. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
