I was prescribed Dexlansoprazole 60mg DR Capsules for severe heartburn and GERD. It's been a couple of months, and while it has helped with the acid reflux, I'm starting to worry about the side effects. I've read about some serious issues like kidney problems and electrolyte imbalances. Has anyone else experienced any of these urgent side effects? I want to be proactive about my health, but I'm not sure what to look out for specifically. Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!
