Prevasid and Ticlid
Question: Diagnosed from EGD – Small intestine mild acute and chronic inflammation. Stomach-chronic gastritis without activity.
Prescribed Prevacid.
Also diagnosed TIA and some stroke risk. Using Calan SR to control hypertension for a number of years.
Under Doctors care but have some questions about drug therapies. Can I used both drugs together safely?
How long should I use Prevacid and how do I know if it is working?
I am a 67 year old male.
Answer: There shouldn’t be any interaction that I am aware of . Prevacid is usually used for a maximum of 2-3 months although with continued experience 6-8 months durations are sometimes used. You will know if it is working if your symptoms of acidity, pain, gastritis are reduced.
