A member asked:

Can nexium cause borborygmus in my stomach? i've been feeling that very strongly since i started taking it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I haven't seen it cause borborygmus, but one theory is that PPIs like nexium, by stopping acid production in the stomach, can cause abnormalities in the small bowel bacterial makeup leading to diarrhea. A gastroenterologist can provide more information on this topic.
