Bloating

[Fitzy007]

Does anyone suffer from bloating after taking losec/omeprazole, am taking 1 twice a day (20mg each)?  Wondering whether to give up on them

I've been on this medication for 2 and a half months, also feel like I'm gaining weight!

I'm on 20mg Omeprazole 2x a day and have never had issues with it causing bloating - I've taken this for 3 years now. How long have been on it? What medical issues do you have, that could also be causing excess bloating.

Hello, I used to take those and I got more gassy than before. I was taking it for hyperacidity. I also was taking TUMS when I was more acidic, but instead it made me nauseous and gave me stomach pains. In searching, I found that the symptoms of high acidity and low acidity are the same. Depends on your age .. As people age, everything  gets lowered. The advise I got was to take Magnesium Chloride two tabs with each meal. My acidity was much better although I still have to manage gas with anti gas enzymes before or after meals. And yes, I did stop taking my prescription.
