allergy to nexium symptoms
NEXIUM may help your acid-related symptoms, but you could still have serious stomach problems. Talk with your doctor. NEXIUM can cause serious side effects, including: 1  Diarrhea. 2  NEXIUM may increase your risk of getting severe diarrhea. 3  This diarrhea may be caused by an infection (Clostridium difficile) in your intestines. The most common side effects with NEXIUM may include: 1  headache. 2  diarrhea. 3  nausea. 4  gas. 5  abdominal pain. 6  constipation. 7  dry mouth. 8  drowsiness. Introduction Proton pump inhibitors (PPI), the most potent inhibitors of gastric acid secretion, have revolutionized the treatment of acid-related disorders, including gastroesophageal reﬂ ux disease, peptic ulcer disease, and gastropathy induced by nonsteroidal anti-inﬂ ammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Before you take NEXIUM, tell your doctor if you: 1  have been told that you have low magnesium or low vitamin B12 levels in your blood. 2  have liver problems. 3  are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. 4  are breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed. The presence of cross-reactivity between different members of the group is not clear. We studied 9 patients with adverse reactions to omeprazole. Clinical symptoms appeared immediately in 8 patients and after 4 hours in 1. Symptoms ranged from urticaria/angioedema in 7 cases to anaphylaxis in 2 cases. Ten individuals with no previous history of allergy to proton pump inhibitors and 10 patients with suspected adverse reactions to omeprazole and negative skin prick test results who proved to be tolerant to omeprazole. Skin prick or intradermal tests with omeprazole were positive in 8 patients. 1 Using NEXIUM for a long period of time may increase the risk of inflammation to your stomach lining. 2  You may or may not have symptoms. 3  Tell your doctor if you have stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, or weight loss. 4  Low magnesium levels in your body. In order to offer a safe alternative, cross-reactivity studies with lansoprazole and pantoprazole were performed. Case Description Patients Nine nonatopic women (no history of allergic reaction) aged 35-54 years (mean 42.5 years) were referred to our allergy department with adverse reaction to omeprazole. We often see patients with complaints of sore throat, the frequent need to clear their throat, and chronic cough. Many have allergies. The allergic rhinitis (literally, inflammation of the nose) causes excess mucus to be produced in the nose. Gravity drains the mucus down the throat, where it irritates cough receptors, and the coughing starts. Constantly clearing your throat is not only bothersome, it also worsens your sore throat. Even so, if the acid reaches up to the throat, the exact same symptoms can occur: sore throat, too much mucus in the throat, a continual need to clear the throat, and cough, cough, cough. Believe it or not, treating Laryngo-Pharygeal Reflux (LPR) is more difficult than treating Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
