A member asked:
Can you tell me how long do prilosec side-effects last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Few linger...: ...past the time you stop the medication--e.g. headache, diarrhea. However, be aware that chronic use can increase risk of osteopenia which does not reverse when Prilosec is discontinued.
