Peri, Tirz, night sweats and heartburn?

I'm also in peri and have used tirz more than a year now. Reflux has actually decreased for me while on it though my family deals with it a lot. Generic omeprazole from Walmart works fine for daily use.

Omeprazole works. Also think about adding daily kpv.

Reflux is probably best handled directly with a proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole which you can get over the counter. Ongoing reflux can damage the esophagus and feels miserable. Any long-term concerns with the medication are likely smaller than the risks from leaving reflux untreated. Weight loss itself often fixes reflux so once the pounds come off it may stop even while still using the glp. I needed high-dose ppis for ten years until the weight came off and then no longer required them. Standard steps like smaller meals, skipping liquids during meals, and avoiding food or drink late in the day can help since lying down makes it worse. These glp medications slow stomach emptying and alter muscle movement which raises reflux risk but that tends to lessen after several months just like other stomach side effects.

I had been taking omeprazole but after losing weight on tirz I tapered off over a few months and no longer need it. Now I reach for an occasional over-the-counter antacid maybe once a month at most.

In my role as a physician these issues always come across as extremely concerning. They would stand out as my main worry if brought up during a patient visit. I have patients head over to a digestive specialist or some other medical expert. Medicines only get discussed when I inquire about them. People skip giving too much information and instead briefly note the problems along with their timeframe in a single sentence so I can take charge of the discussion. This happens the very same day.

Antacids never ease my discomfort in the slightest. It's pointless, much like aiming urine at a wildfire, my friend. These stomach troubles existed well before any weight loss shots. Stopping the acid blocker always brought the problems right back once it left my body. The physician said to keep using it instead of stopping, since avoiding the pain and possible harm from excess acid makes more sense. I've used it steadily for fifteen years now, and that probably explains why another permanent treatment like the weight one never bothered me. Your healthcare setup over there must be really cautious when something as minor and fixable as occasional acid reflux is enough to cause concern.
