What Causes Persistent Stomach Upset And Nausea?

I had migraines for a week and took excedrin, Aleve, and was prescribed hydrocodone. I took maybe 3-4 hydrocodone (not at once and did not combine any). I am now waking up nauseated and sometimes all day - going on 5 days. Have had problems with irritated stomach in the past and my gastro dr. has me take carafate as needed. Have added Prilosec. Could the things I was taking over a week cause my stomach upset to last awhile?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Yes the multiple drug consumption done throughout the day (probably taken on an empty stomach )can cause your problem.
For your present complaints-
-Avoid taking any of the pills on an empty stomach. Take at least a glass of coldmilk.
-Avoid spicy food or oily food difficult to digest.
-Avoid tea/coffee/alcohol/smoking.
-Try tab. Ranitidine (over the counter)150 mg two or three times a day.
-Inform your doctor before you take another such course... so that he can add some preventive dose along with the medications.
Thanks
