In case of liver disease you may not be able to take Esomeprazole, or may need a dosage adjustment or monitoring during treatment. Fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions occur in patients on penicillin therapy. If you are having a history of penicillin hypersensitivity or sensitivity to multiple allergens, these reactions are more likely to occur. Pseudo membranous colitis has been reported with nearly all antibacterial agents, including clarithromycin and amoxicillin, and may range in severity from mild to life threatening. This diagnosis is very important in patients who suffer from diarrhea subsequent to the administration of antibacterial agents. Esomeprazole is in the FDA pregnancy category B. Which means that animal–reproduction studies have not demonstrated a fatal risk but there are no controlled studies in pregnant women, or animal–reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect that was not confirmed in controlled studies in women in the first trimester (and there is no evidence of a occur risk in later trimesters). It is unknown if Esomeprazole passes into breast milk. Thus, never take Esomeprazole without consulting your doctor if you are pregnant, or planning to get pregnant or breast feeding the baby.
