Dexilant has worked very well for me with very few side effects experienced by OTC drugs. I have been using this for a year at 60 MG dose. Perhaps a bit of weight gain but I am more concerned by joint aches and stiffness which I think may be caused by this drug, although I have not seen anyone else with this complaint.

Has anyone else had a severe cough with this. I have been sent to specialists, gastro and allergy. Now battery of other tests. I think it is the Dexilant. The insurance companies want to save money and place us on cheap imitations......so I guess until my MD finds out why I am having so many problems.....it will cost the insurance company even more for all these tests. I am going to stop it for a week and try basic acid reducers over counter. Help......

I am reviewing this medication for my husband. He has gotten better relief with less side effects than other meds he has taken for his GERD. In response to reviews about weight gain: if your digestive system is feeling better, possibly you are eating more food. Just a thought.

Recently my husband developed profuse sweating followed by chills. He has never had this before. I noticed one other reviewer who mentioned hot flashes. This could be related to the medication.
