 1  esophageal spasms so many I cannot name them all, it was the worst experience ever. NO ONE tells you how seriouslly this affects your health over all. I want everyone to know that you MUST wean off this drug. If you just stop your symptoms will become worse than ever. I opened my capsules over a 4 week period and took out a little every 2-3 days until I could stop. I also used an herbal supplement called Iberogast as directed to help soothe my digestive tract. I have been free of spasm and reflux since I went off the Prevacid. Please hit me back if you would like more info. This is something I so wish someone had told me, I really thought I was seriously ill but it was the stress of feeling so bad on top of the side effects of ppi. F 52 2 years
