stopping prevacid

.

Stay off all dairy, seems impossible, I do eat low fat yogurt and cottage cheese and use 2% milk for my cafeine free tea[yuck] I am English so tea was a comfort food for me. I have LPRD and the most awful barking cough that does not allow me to sleep properly, I also spit up a lot of mucous. Had all the PPIs. nothing stops the cough. Can anyone help. Thanks to all. Jan

You who are using prevacid, try using this, I use pepcid ac along with 2 phazymes anytime I need it. I feel that this has helped me immensly! I have suffered with reflux for more than 30 years. I am a candidate for enteryx procedure, Too expensive, so I had to find my own cure. I eat salmon/tuna fish, or canned chicken in the morning. I still do drink coffee, however eating a substantial meal, helps to cut the acid which of course is problem. I have found that we people with this problem, do not eat properly. I take this regimen regularly, I also cut out cheese and milk products. I have experimented and asked many people who have general stomach problems. They all agree, we have to be more cautious. No alcohol and no fats. throw out medicines that cause discomfort. Keep a diary of the bad food that effected you. carol kearfott

After being on prevacid for about 5 years, for some strange reason, serious side effects have been appearing. The doctor wants me off prevacid.I stopped taking it and feel so much better, but still have some of the side effects, but at a much weaker intensity. Does anyone know how long it will take for the side effects to leave? Will they leave totally? Thanks! Denn
