Omeprazole + Salamol Plus Email Addresscorrection (Top voted first)

Updated

I have just been prescribed Omeprazole for suspected acid reflux. As I am still breathless from previous bronchitis, can I still take Salamol (blue) and Qvar (Beclometasone Dipropionate? [my original email address has no capital P at the end of it - the address below is the correct one!]

Hi Nemo,

The two medications Salamol and Qvar, (which are often combined in clinical practice), may result in additive hypokalemic effects.

Hypokalemia is a lower-than-normal amount of potassium in the blood. Symptoms: A small drop in potassium usually doesn't cause symptoms. However, a big drop in the level can be life threatening.

"Other than that", my research shows that there are no drug interactions found between the active ingredients in Omeprazole, Salamol, and Qvar,

I hope this info helps!
