Can Prevacid Prevent The Absorption Of Celebrex?
Does Prevacid prevent the absorption of Celebrex? I ve been taking Celebrex for 10 years for osteoarthritis in my sternoclavicular joint caused from an injury and since I ve been on proton pump inhibitors just recently, I hurt so much it seems like I haven t even taken my Celebrex. Just wondering if maybe the Celebrex capsule isn t disintegrating because of lack of acid in my stomach.

hello
There needs to change from PPI inhibitor to Ranatidine or famotodine.!0 years is a long long time to be on celeberex.Osteo-arthritic pain can be managed on simple actaminophen and physical therapy, ultrasonic application to St_Cl joint or your doctor may infilerate injection hydrocortisone acetate mixed with lidocain 2% into the joint for better relief ,if he agrees
