Hi ,
I am now on 100, 100, 150 mg potiga a day . I was wondering if anybody has indigestetion, upset stomach , feel like vomiting . I also have anxiety but I do usually have that every now and then . My dr. wants me to slowly go up to 600 morning and night . I am a bit frightened . jenn
 
Potiga lists indigestion and heartburn as side effects, so it's probably responsible for how you're feeling. Do the stomach problems seem to getting worse, getting better, or staying the same?
 
I'm up to 200 mgs. of Potiga and my dr. wants me up to 600 mgs. also. I also experience the anxiety so am reluctant to go any higher. Once in a while I experience an upset stomach, so not sure if it's from Potiga or other meds.
 
my stomach is fine, but i am a picky eater and eat mostly tame foods.
 
eat mostly tame foods.

I'm also diabetic and I eat mostly tame foods, too. So most of the time I experience an upset stomach, it is from the meds or insulin or flu.
 
For me, tame foods are non-spicey foods and just plain fruits and veggies and broiled or baked fish, chicken, or turkey with maybe some mild flavoring on them.
