I was prescribed OMEPRAZOLE for about 1-2 years from a previous RANIDATIDE prescriprion that was said to be more potent. I developed sensitive peripheral neoropathy at the tip of one toe (second digit/next to great toe). The VA primary doctor has prescribed GABAPENTIN 600mg/day, which I take only prior to sleep. The irritation normally occurs while trying to fall asleep, but sometimes it can irritate while walking or other activity. I quit the OMEPRAZOLE when I found a doctorate's report that said "all the 'AZOLES" have been known in side affect to cause peripheral neoropathy. I found the professional report during a Google search, and I would like some assistance to find that article report again - and if there are any other citations about "the AZOLES" family of PPI's that can complicate a neoropathy condition. Many times now I am seriously considering an amputation rather than saturating my body with up to 1500mg GABAPENTIN + TYLENOL, ASPERIN, and NAPROXEN to boost - and 1 or 2 CYCLOBENZAPRENE that a friend provides in good faith. I get very dizzy from that necessary saturation, and still have to continually massage that toe for a temporary relief. Sometimes I'll end up not sleeping for 24 or 36 hours if I had eaten prior to taking the GABAPENTIN, or did not take enough dosage for an unsuspected severe attack. The GABAPENTIN works best on an empty stomach, and takes a good 2-4 hours to take effect. I have red pimple-like spotted elements all over my skin surface that may be a form of melitus diabeties that may also have pre-disposed me to the neoropathy via introductory affects of the OMEPRAZOLE. I will try to get a VA appointment to see a neoroligist some day, as my VA clinical primary does not have the necessary specialty of this neorologic condition.
