benzos and antacids
« on: October 19, 2006, 12:25:45 AM »
When the ER originally gave me lorazepam, some sheet they gave me with it said do not take antacids within 1 hour of taking it.  When I got it filled at the pharmacy (I even have had it filled at 2 different stores before) the handouts never mentioned this.  And now I am trying klonopin and there is no mention of it.  I just keep assuming I must wait an hour before taking the antacids.  It is very annoying because now I can't just take a klonopin and go to bed, because benzos are known to cause acid and so i have to then wait an hour and take antacids.  Supposedly acid reflux pills do not count as antacids, but I am trying to stop using those because 1.  they don't totally get rid of the acid either and 2.  I think they mess with my vision and give me headaches.  (as a side note, I think these benzos are messing with my vision also, such as making things seem darker... I think I remember buspirone doing that a couple years ago also.... so I wonder if that is just me or many who use benzos.  I hope it is nothing serious).
