Did you take these meds with little or no food in your stomach? You apparently developed acute gastritis, inflammation of the stomach lining. Avoid spicy or greasy foods,alcohol&caffeine, coat your stomach lining with antacid like maalox or gelusil 1/2 hour after meals & at bedtime, take pepcid AC according to instructions. You should gradually improve over the next few days.
