Hello, in March I had a pacemaker implanted in connection with sick sinus syndrome. After three months with a pacemaker check, it turned out that I had atrial fibrillation. I was given medications: Polfenon, Eliquis, PPI. After three weeks, I started to feel pain in the upper abdomen. I have also been taking Lecalpin and Dipper-Mono for a long time to lower the pressure. Can abdominal pain be related to medications? I once had a rash after Indapen SR.

Drugs can cause abdominal pain as an adverse reaction, but with different statistical frequency and it can not be assumed in advance that they are the cause of the ailment. It's always a good idea to rule out other causes first so as not to miss some important health signals. If epigastric pains persist, it is advisable to contact a doctor - for example, a family one. Stomach pain may occur as an adverse reaction in less than 1 in 10 people taking Polfenon. In the case of PPIs, abdominal pain and discomfort may appear as an uncommon side effect - less than 1 in 100 people taking this preparation. If you get Eliquis, up to 1 in 10 people may experience nausea. Abdominal pain is rare for Lecalpin and uncommon for Dipper-Mono.
