Prevpac treatment

by tonycm, Aug 29, 2007 04:58PM
I had severe bloating starting July 11. I was put on aciphex for 4 weeks the symptoms did not improve much but became milder. Then I had a upper endoscopy with biopsy. The doctor diagnosed mild antral gastritis and came positive for H pylori. I was asked to take prevpac for 14 days. I did for 10 days but towards the last 3 days my diarhhea became severs i.e 4 stools a day most of them watery. Normally immediately afetr meals. I stopped taking 2 doses and today there was no stool passing. I left message to my doctor what to do but he has not returned my call. The diarhhea did not have an blood. I had some minor piles.

I want to know whether I should finidh the course of prevpac(amox, clarithromycin, Prevacid) sinceI need to take it for 3 more days
