man this is why I have refused alot of medications that have been just given to me to shut up. I have been written soooo many scribes. I only end up filling maybe on or two out the the ten or so. Every medication has side affects some they wont find out till its too late and that is when the legal stuff happens and when information is withheld. I have dug and found some pretty nasty stuff about a very very common medication for heartburn like Prilosec, prevacid and any proton pump inhibitor medication for heartburn and GERD. Many bad side affects.. they have one settlement going on right now but I feel in about ten years or less you will start seeing more and more problems with the drug. You have to dig deeper into the info because prilosec for example only lists the most common side affects on the actual paper you get with the perscriptions. Unfortunately I do take prilosec. I have to in order to be comfortable, nothing else seems to work for me so its a real catch 22.. possibly get pancreatitis or have painful heartburn all day everyday. Either way it totally sucks.
It was also only recently that they found Paxil causes many birth defects so there are alot of settelements associated with that drug as well. Luckily I dont take that stuff anymore.
