I've been having this pain between my shoulder and elbow on my right arm when I wake up in the morning. It's been happening for the past month or two. I usually sleep on my left side, and I've had some fractured vertebrae diagnosed in my mid-upper back along with osteoporosis. Most of the time, the pain lessens after an hour or two, but today it was really bad. Could this be related to my previous back issues or osteoporosis? What should I do about this?

use zerodal mr and If the pain becomes severe or persists for longer periods, or if you begin to notice symptoms such as numbness, tingling, weakness, or difficulty moving your arm, its important to seek medical attention immediately, as these could be signs of more serious nerve involvement.

View allI'm a bit worried because my mom got prescribed Sompraz 40 for her Rheumatic Arthritis side effects, but the pharmacy gave us Sompraz D 40 instead. Do you think it's okay to use this one or should I try to get it exchanged for the original prescription? Just want to make sure she's taking the right medication.
Sompraz and Sompraz D 40 are related but not identical medications. _Sompraz_ typically contains Pantoprazole 40 mg, which is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce stomach acid. _Sompraz D 40_, on the other hand, is a combination medication containing Pantoprazole 40 mg and Domperidone 30 mg. Domperidone is a prokinetic agent that helps with gastrointestinal motility. If your mom's doctor prescribed Sompraz, it's likely they intended for her to take only the Pantoprazole. Taking Sompraz D 40 might not be harmful, but it's essential to clarify with her doctor to ensure she receives the intended treatment.
