What Causes Gagging And Stomachache While On Hydrocodone?

My mother is 93 yrs. old and started taking Hydrocodon -Actaminophen 5-325. My mother has scoliosis on her spine which has elevated the left side of her hip. I imagine her internal organs are not in the right place at this pt. Anyway this pill is making her sick she gags 2 hrs after she takes this pill. She eats toast before she takes it. She is allergic to codeine and sulfate. There are other reactions to this pill which is dizziness fogginess. The worst is the terrible stomach ache she has and gags as if to throw up but nothing comes out.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be due to gastritis.

As of now you can take antacids like omeprazole for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
