F37, Swallowing and reflux issues.

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone can help with my query.

Last week my GP prescribed me Lansoprazole because my Omeprazole stopped working. She has referred me for an Endoscopy, but has also given me a medication called Domperidone to help with reflux. The packet says to take x3 a day and the box contains 30 tablets. When I looked on NHS online, it said to not take it for longer than 7 days. But the Dr didn’t mention that to me and it doesn’t advise that on the box. I know it’s only 30 tablets anyway, but should I just take 7 days worth or finish the box? It’s quite a difficult process to get back in touch with the GP but I don’t want to too many as apparently they can cause your heart to race.

Hiya

I have been on 80mg of Propanalol for a few years now, but I didn’t realise I had run out until Thursday evening. I had to miss my dose for Friday, Saturday, Sunday and now it’s Bank Holiday Monday.
I thought I had some sort of virus Saturday, as I was shaking and felt weak and just funny over all. I still have those feelings but now I’ve realised it might be from stopping the meds like that. I’m also breathless and wheezy, but it’s unusually hot where I live, so that might be contributing to that.
I’m going to put my prescription request online tomorrow, so I am probably going to be missing another day or two of the Propanalol. Is taking it again going to cause more symptoms do you think?
