Nexpro 20 For Flatulence
(Newest replies first)
Updated
I have been prescribed Nexpro 20 for flatulence caused by wysolone and methotrexate, which I am taking for RA.
Yet I read everywhere that flatulence is a side effect of Nexpro.
I don't have acidity or upper digestive tract problems, mine are all in the lower regions – bloating and gas.
Can you advise?

Hi, Loosa! How are you doing?
There are some cases where gas and bloating can be caused by excess stomach acid, so in a way using a medication like this for it makes sense.
But yes, you're right it can actually cause it as a side effect.
The main question, however, is have you tried it yet?
Not everyone experiences all the side effects that a medication may cause and proper treatment is really going to depend on what's causing your flatulence problem.
Since you are on the Prednisone, it is a good guess to think it may be caused by excess stomach acid, since these steroid class medications are well known to cause it.
Learn more Nexpro details here.
Perhaps I should have been clearer – I am based in India and Wysolone is the Indian brand name for prednisone (US) or prednisolone (UK) – this is cortisone medication.. Folitrax is the Indian brand name for methotrexate.
if Nexpro is designed to cure flatulence, how on earth can flatulence be a side effect? Yet I read on websites that is is listed as one
Anyone any insight into this?
