Lansoprazole

I am the guest below forgot to put name, feel so unwell with sickness and stomach pains not thinking straight, they have to go. :(

I feel sick all the time and have an upset stomach and do not want to eat. When i stopped taking them for three days I felt so much better and actually wanted food. The constant sick feeling left and so did the upset stomach. I also felt less bloated and the stomach pains stopped. I am now back on them and feel wretched, they have to go. :(

Extreme fatigue, tiredness, joint pain........1st day of medication yesterday - thought it was due to flying....no way! Felt fab this morning at 7 am, now after taking the tablet I have no idea how I'm going to be able to go through the day.......only want to get back to the bed!!
Needless to say: no more Lansoprazole for me ever!

I have been on Lans for 8 weeks now & have been feeling very ill. Swollen glands,bloated stomach,feeling unwell.Now stopped taking it & I am gradually returning to normal. The effects of the Lans were worse than my original reflux problem!!

been on lanzoprazole for two years. Now have multiple polyps, have heard Lanzoprazole can cause this.

bloated stomach and really bad sweats also bad back pain does anyone else get these symptons

My Intital symptoms were abdominal pain, distension and back pain, and lansoprazole tends to keep these at bay, although any bouts of anxiety or consumption of cream/ice cream or chocolate cancels out the benficial effects.
I have been taking 30mg daily for 8 months now and try every few weeks to not take it but the pain is back within hours.
 The only side effect I can genuinely say I've noticed is a desire to salt or sugar my food - when I have never added salt or sugar before - but that could be nothing to do with the lansoprazole at all.

I have only been taking lansoprazole for one month, but i constantly feel bloated and have developed a urinary tract infection, which is unusual for me.
I also seem to have gained weight, 4-5 lbs...also very unusual.

I have constant abdominal and lower back pain as well as joint pain and kidney and bladder dysfunction since taking lansoprazole 30 mg and later reduced to 15 mgs, for acid reflux  I suspect that it does not work with other medication I take, such as levothyroxine, aspirin 75 mg ec and also calcichew. I have also been diagnosed with IBS. I am going to stop taking lansoprazole and see if matters get better.  

Hi I know it might be a bit early to tell, but I was given Lansoprazole yesterday by a GP. Just to take 15 Mg's a Day.

Just had my Breakfast, and am feeling kind of queazy. If that a possible Side Effect? I was ok before Breakfast.

I've been on various Tablets for several years, regarding Acid Reflux, and a Hiatal Hernia.

After three days taking Lansoprazole developed very dry and itchy throat, general feeling of being unwell.Need to keep drinking and sucking sweets. Had same symptoms a few months ago when doctor originally prescribed the tablets 

   I have started takeing Lansorprazole, the first day is today, I have to take 60 mgs a day for the first week, then one a day afterward untill further notice, it's only the first day and I have terrible stomach cramps and diarrhoea.  I feel sick and feel like I want to vomit, what should I do. Thankyou Sam ing 

I have been taking 30mg daily of lansoprazole for about 14 months. I haven't changed my eating habits but have put on over a stone in weight and my stomach is swollen.

After taking one tablet of Lansoprazole I came out in hives and itching
on various parts of my body.   I discontinued them and contacted my doctor.
I am aged 76.

i have been taking it for nearly 3 weeks now. started off ok. But now i feel very tired and my blood count has gone down .I was unable to give blood at the donors due to too low. Also i have pains in my hands .not sure if it is conected. going back to drs in 2 weeks when i finish the course. My stomache has felt better. But i just dont feel my self yet.

I have taken Prevecid for 15 years prior to be switched to Lansoprazole, with no problems.
