You may expect that by decreasing the amount of acid in the stomach, you will decrease the severity of the symptoms you experience.

Headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhoea, upper respiratory tract infection, acid regurgitation, and blurred vision (sometimes with longer lasting pain) usually improve in a few days.
