What Causes Feeling Of Sickness While Taking Vicodin And Ibuprofen?
I recently got my wisdom teeth removed on Tuesday, and the dentist prescribed me with Vicodin and penicillin but they're making me Sick. Even if I just take ibuprofen I'm getting really sick, so I've stopped taking everything but I'm still throwing up and having stomach pains and now my mouth hurts very badly and I cannot sleep. Is there anything else I could do? Is there a reason the medicine is making me sick?
It seems that you are suffering from the side effects of medicines and antibiotics like Penicillin and even at times painkillers can also cause stomach upset, hyperacidity and other side effects.. I would suggest you to start taking Proton pump inhibitor like Pantoprazole or Omeprazole empty stomach in the morning and antacids like Milk of Magnesia before meals for preventing the symptoms you are experiencing.. You can take Ondensarton if you have nausea and vomiting.. Take light diet and avoid spicy foods.. Take more of Yoghurt in diet as it helps in replenishing good bacteria of intestines.. In case if still there is no improvement consult your treating dentist and get evaluated...
Hope this helps..
Regards..
