Nausea from medication

can anyone advice?

I have been taking a ppi since diagnosed with barrett's and at this stage my colon feels inflamed.

my consultant has put me on high dose of zantac 600mg per day until I get colonoscopy.

i only started on the zantac today and already i am nauseous. I started on 300mg thinking I would increase dose after a few days.

i was only diagnosed 3 months ago and haven't sorted out medication. The consultant tells me not to worry as the barrett's is very slight. He tells me anxiety will cause more harm than anything else.

Has anyone had similar problem with zantac? Will the nausea get less after a few days?
