How Long Does The Heartburn Last?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
Minneapolis, MN

I have been taking the liquid form for 4 months and it just tastes so bad I finally switched to the pill version since I'm not done increasing my doses. Took my first pill tonight and the heartburn was strong and actually, I couldn't stop burping - which was unexpected since same dose as the liquid form. Does anyone have different side effects to the same medicine and same dose but in different forms?

No i have not. As @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member mentioned, everyone is different. Are you aware of the side effects? Lacosomide side effects are vomiting and nausea just to name a few. Plus, it's important to make sure whatever else you are taking does not conflict with taking Lacosomide. That also includes vitamin supplements. You have to know what the side effects are for everything you are taking to know what is making you feel this way. Talk to your neurologist about this and keep a diary. Hope you will feel better soon.

It's dif per person, I got once in a while, but doesn't last long, sometimes bout 10, min to up to 20 mins for me maybe a half hour at the most I've noticed, I'm not sure if it is something I ate or has to do with meds I take or a combo of things, but doesn't happen often but does, my opinion
