What Causes Burning Sensation In The Stomach After Withdrawing From Anxiety Medication?

My husband is disabled, because of bone spurs in his neck. Last week they started taking him off an anxiety medicine, v??, it is a nasty one that takes a while to get off so he is doing half doses, would this cause him to have a burning stomach and chills for the last 10 days. What is something I could do to relieve some of the discomfort.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
Most of these medications taken could cause increased acid secretion in the stomach causing acute gastritis. Hence, you could experience burning sensation in the stomach as symptoms.
Kindly do the following to overcome the same.
1. Take Tablet. Rabeprazole once a day in the morning on empty stomach for 10 days.
2. Take liquid antacid syrup twice daily before food.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome the symptoms.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
