What Causes Choking Sensation After Taking Dexilant?
I have been taking one 60 mg dexilant tablet for about 9 days now...Three days ago I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy and everything looked pretty good. My doctor said that I had some gastritis and they did a biopsy for H pylori and Celiac disease. I will get the results next week. Ever since I have been taking the Dexilant I have felt a slight choking sensation which I just thought was my nerves. it would come and go. After my procedure the other day it seems worse and it still would come and go. I ve decided today that I wouldn t take the medicine and see if that was the problem. I don t know how long it stays in your system. I think I will just take the Pepcid, which is what I took before I saw the doctor. I will give him a call on Monday. What are your thoughts?

Hi,
It is not related to Dexilant.
