“As for Zantac, not all reflux meds are effective on all people, no matter what the advertising. Ask about a change.”

I agree completely with looking forward.

Both my daughter and I have separately had very bad reactions to large doses of Zantac. She had extreme fatigue, body ache and other symptoms. She switched medications and was fine. I had worsening symptoms from Zantac. Perhaps you can ask your doctor to switch from Zantac to something else. I was surprised by both of our reactions to this medication when it was taken in large doses. I have also known people who have had a difficult time with Prilosec in large doses. I have had good luck with Pepcid AC and believe it or not–Tums.

You may want to speak with your doctor about the medication Zofran for relieving your nausea. It can be a miracle drug for extreme nausea. It eliminates nausea almost immediately and is often used to relieve nausea symptoms from narcotics and chemotherapy.

I hope you feel better soon!
