Will Seroquel Causes Irritated Esophagus?

Can acid reflux or Barret s esophagus irritate the lungs in addition to the esophagus? I have been to two gastro doctors. One did a Bravo test with the endoscopy procedure. He didn t see that I had a major problem with reflux then. Since the test which was done about 10 months ago, I have had increasing irritation in the esophogas. Now I have a lot of irritation. I have been taking 300 mg of Seroquel a day for anxiety and think it may be causing irritation. Will Seroquel cause irritation?

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Among the side effects of seroquel are acid or sour stomach, heartburns and belching.The feeling in your oesophagus may be caused by seroquel or an underlying gastric/reflux problem that may have been there before you started this drug.I will advise you try the following:
-See the Doctor for an H pylori test
-Take an antisecretory like omeprazole
-Take an antacid like maalox
-Eat in small quantities and more frequently and avoid going for lon with an empty stomach
-Avoid foods that aggravate pains
-Avoid pepper and much green spices
-Avoid lying immediately after meal
-Avoid stress
Hope my answer will help you
