5 little-known reasons acid reflux meds make you feel worse
5. Headaches
Proton pump inhibitors can also cause headaches but thanks to that B12 and magnesium deficiency that can result from taking them, they can have one more troubling side effect …
They can worsen migraines.
According to Dr. Mauskop, “This is a class effect, so switching from one drug to another will not help. Taking a magnesium, vitamin B12 and other supplements may help, but many of my patients, especially those who cannot stop the PPI medication require an intravenous infusion of magnesium and injections of vitamin B12.”
Magnesium plays an important role in migraine prevention because it’s believed to prevent the wave of brain signaling that leads to aura. And, B12 can reduce the severity of migraines.
If you’re taking any of these acid reflux drugs, you could be harming your health in multiple ways.
To find relief from your acid reflux, without the dangerous side effects, try these natural options instead to live healthy and reflux-free.
