A member asked:

On lansoprazole, worried about side effects?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Few: Really don't need to worry too much about side effects. They're few and long term use can lead to problems such as osteoporosis and a slight increased risk of certain types of infection. Generally, though, these are quite safe.
