"Started taking carafate three days ago for gastritis been having headaches, backaches, allergy eyes itching, ears and throat itching. Today after the second dose I experienced acid reflux that left my throat and tongue raw. Not sure what to do here."

"Took my chest and back pain away which were INTENSE from the GERD. However, I was barely able to stand up and walk to and from the bathroom by day 4 without feeling dizzy and nauseas. I felt forgetful and the vertigo was becoming debilitating. I do not recommend this for anything other than treating be actual ulcer if and when it’s diagnosed through an upper GI series."

"I am taking liquid Carafate (2 tsp 4x daily) for severe gastritis mostly brought on from stress. I felt immediate relief after first day. For me however, I eat a “brat” diet while on Carafate which is bananas, rice, applesauce and toast. Bland diet. Pain gone. Stomach healing. Thanks to who ever invented this."

"It works kind of for Gastritis. You have to take it on an empty stomach. But it makes me feel weird, most people that take it notice lightheadedness, and weakness or being dizzy. Some say it increases their anxiety. It’s because it drops your blood pressure. Not sure why it’s not mentioned as a side effect because it happens to a lot of people. It drops mine 20 points and I have perfect blood pressure so it makes it too low and I get cold and just want to lay in bed. Other people I know complained and I told them to check their BP, same thing for them 90/70 and 88/68. I'm usually 120/80 and I’ll be 90/60-70 something if I take it. So I avoid taking unless I have to."
