Taking Pantoprazole And Famotidine. Why Do I Have Watery Stools? Help?
Hi, I am taking Pantoprazole 40mg and Famotidine 20mg. I have been taking them since being discharged from hospital ( I had a Endoscopy and Colonoscopy ), they found nothing. I am being treated for a rather strong case of Acid Reflux (hence the medication above). My question is; For the past 10 days I have been having very watery stool that is majority water and little stool. Should I stop taking the medication? I will be calling my GI today or tomorrow and seeking advice but I thought I would also give this website a shot. Thanks

hi,
yes you may stop the famotidine for a while before u consult ur doctor
keep taking plenty of fluids. what other meds are you currently taking eg prokinetics can also lead to excess bowel movements
thanx
