   Depressed or nutrition-deprived? (General Health board)

24th April 2005
I live in the Lehigh Valley, Pa.

I did some research on Pepcid and Prilosec and it seems that the active ingredient " Famotidine" .
Some of the side effects with taking them consist of depression, confusion, loss of appetite, anxiety and more.
These pills also contain Omeprazole.

Now when I look back... I'm beginning to think I was in a vicious circle. The new job was stessing me and I would have all this anxiety when I ate. Then I was taking Pepcid almost every day. My concentration was horrible. Cold sweats, blurred vison and red blood shot eyes. Heavy burping. These symptoms can all be caused by taking too much pepcid, prilosec etc.
Now I am trying to limit breads, chips, anything creamy like salad dressings so it does not bring on any GERD, therfore leading me to take these pills.
My life has been turned totally upside down by this.
