A member asked:
Can i just stop dexilant and take zantacs as i have had very severe diarrhea for 2 weeks now will i experience any severe consequences going off of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Zantac will not help diarrhea as it is indicated for upper GI issues. How you taper the dexilant depends on the dose you are taking currently.
