What Causes Diarrhea And Nausea After Taking Prilosec?

i developed loose bowels and was nausea after taking prilosec. i have taken it for years and this is the first time Ihave had this problem. I have not eaten but took a promethiazie for nausea and have not taking anything to stop the bowel problem. I do take torpol and need to take that sometime but you have to take that with food. I ws thinking of taking the ammonium.

Hello,

I think this is not related to Prilosec or Torpol intake since you have been taking them for a long time. I think this may be a viral gastroenteritis and you can use Loperamide for diarrhea and Reglan for nausea. Keep yourself hydrated.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
