The Cause Of Acid Reflux

Q.Can claritin cause acid reflux? I just recently started having a bad case of acid reflux and I noticed it started about the same time I started taking the allergy medicine claritin. I'm not sure this is even logical but I'm giving it a shot. So can anyone in the group help me please?

A.Apparently so. I would approach an allergy from a different angle anyway. An allergy is one of the basic signs of compromised immune function. Drugs and chemicals will only serve to relieve symptoms (whilst offering you some wonderful side-effects as you already know), and also tend to add stress to an already weakened immune system. If you want some information on how to deal with allergies better, please don't hesitate to contact me. Incidentally, if the issue of Acid Reflux doesn't go away, a colleague of mine experienced remarkable results when he was very ill with the condition. You are absolutely on the right track and you should bring this up with your doctor. He knows of a lot of other allergy medications that will not aggravate your acid reflux. Acid reflux disease is serious and can be life threatening, therefore don't toy around with it. I hope you get to feeling better
