Prevacid is generally well tolerated and has a low occurrence of side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and nausea. Symptom relief does not rule out serious stomach conditions. Talk to your doctor or healthcare professional to see if Prevacid is right for you.
It's important to see your doctor—whether or not you've been diagnosed with acid reflux disease in the past.
Remember, whether your doctor talks to you about acid reflux disease or "GERD," both are names for the same disease and mean the same thing. GERD is simply short for
GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease.
Acid reflux disease can interfere with your lifestyle, disrupt your sleep, and have you worrying about long-term damage. There's the heartburn - the painful, burning sensation in your chest that's the most common symptom of the disease. Some people report chest pains, mistaking heartburn for a heart attack.
Other signs and symptoms can include difficulty swallowing that may make even a favorite meal hard to get down. And the belching and regurgitation—as embarrassing as they are unpleasant. In some people, the regurgitation of acid can also damage tooth enamel.
Some people also have symptoms that resemble other respiratory conditions, such as sore throat, wheezing, chronic coughing, and hoarseness.
Heartburn—and other symptoms.
Ask your doctor and discuss how Prevacid can play a part in your comprehensive treatment plan. A helpful diet and lifestyle changes may control your symptoms.
Acid reflux disease can cause serious damage.
It's important to know that acid reflux disease is a complex condition with many degrees of severity, ranging from symptoms only (symptomatic acid reflux disease) to erosive esophagitis, in which your esophagus can have increasing grades of damage.
Erosive Esophagitis involves damage to the esophageal tissue, called an erosion. This can happen as a result of the frequent and persistent presence of stomach acid in the esophagus. As mentioned above, this can have different degrees of severity.
For example, severe esophagitis or erosions known as "esophageal ulcers" can lead to esophageal bleeding, which you may not even be aware of. If bleeding is persistent, it can result in iron deficiency and anemia, as well as extreme pain and loss of weight. The more severe the erosive esophagitis, the longer it takes to heal. |
