Can Omeprazole And Rabeprazole Be Taken While On Citalopram?
I received a letter from TRICARE stating that it will no longer provide Nexium at no cost and suggested three different drugs to replace Nexium that costs less. The three drugs listed as preferred alternatives are Omeprazole (Prilosec), Pantoprazole (Protonix), and Rabeprazole (Aciphex). Of these three, I found that I cannot be prescribed Pantoprazole because I also take Citalopram. Please recommend one of the other two listed that would not be harmful to me. The other drugs that I take daily are Amlodipine?Benazepril Caps 5/20mg 1 tab daily; Simvastatin Tabs 10 mg 1 tab daily; AREDS 2 caps daily; Centrum Silver for Woman Multivitamin, and Coral Calcium, 1000 mg daily. I will also contact my physician with his recommendation as well. Thanks.
