I have heard that prilosec can do something like what you described. Have
you heard about Prevacid? I don't know how much better it might be, but I
have terrible reflux problems and its helping a lot even after only a few
weeks. Now I can actually sing fully and not be clearing my throat all the
time.

Hi, I use prilosec and have recently been dianosed with tinnitus(
ringing in the ears.) I've been reading about side effects and they say
that the drug could interfere with Vit. B-12 absorption. It is thought
that one of the causes of tinnitus is low Vit B-12. I'm wondering not
if fI should go off it. Then hear comes the stomach problems again!
What's a person to do. Why did you stop taking it? Thank Kathy B.
