They caused both of her hips to break. She didn’t fall and break her hip - her hip snapped, and then she hit the ground. One broke, and then a month later the other broke. Also, she had a terrible case of C. Difficile and E. coli and her body wasn’t able to fight the infections, even with antibiotics. That’s another side effect of the drugs. She was older, so that’s probably harder on her body, but the problem is your body doesn’t do well without stomach acid, and then, as I mentioned, you get the rebound effect when you try to stop. When I found out that the drugs caused osteoporosis and that people who took them were more up to break a hip, I tried to take her off them, but she had such a horrible Rebound effect that she couldn’t eat for almost a week, and I had to put her back on them. I really didn’t want to, but I didn’t know what else to do. I don’t know why they’re allowed to sell drugs that have such terrible side effects. I hope you can find something else that works for you! Good luck.

I believe when you are taking a PPI and you want to stop, you are supposed to be weaned off that med, not stop it suddenly.
