Great Price made even better with subscribe and save September 4, 2009 Morganna Wolf (Portland, OR) My husband tried a generic of this but felt it did not work as well as the brnad name. With the subscribe and save program Amazon sends this out on an iterval of my choosing and I save an aditional 15% making the cost much lower than in the stores.
Great product !!!!!!!!!! July 5, 2009 J. Reynolds (Tennessee) Just one pill a day and I can eat anything, and not have heart burn ever.
Information on Prilosec from an RN and Prilosec user June 23, 2009 gilly8 (Mars, the hotspot of the U.S.) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These medications, like Prilosec, and the stronger Nexium, are meant to be taken daily, not on an "as needed" basis like you might take Tums or Rolaids. Of course, they're meant to relieve heartburn, also called Acid Reflux, or GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.)
To work the best, take it routinely--every day--just as you would take Blood Pressure medication. AND, be sure your doctor or health care provider KNOWS you are taking this or any other over-the-counter (OTC) med. Some interact with prescription medications that are more important for you to take.
If a person is still having on-going heartburn, mid-chest pain, pain in your throat, these CAN be heart symptoms too...GET CHECKED OUT!
Once you know you only have simple heartburn, easily controlled by the Prilosec then you're ok to take it. But anyone with severe heartburn: up half the night due to discomfort, sleeping sitting up, and that sort of thing, needs to really see a doctor and make sure what is going on.
In some cases patients with really severe heartburn that is affecting their lives on a daily (or nightly!) basis, need to seen a Gastroenterologist, the kind of specialist that can look down into your esophagus (swallowing tube) and stomach, and make sure there are no ulcers or anything else wrong. Depending on your insurance you may need a referral from your primary doctor to see a specialist for this; but if the heartburn is that severe, and any heart problems have been ruled out; then it may be the best thing to do.
I hope this helps a little. I know many people severely suffer with heartburn. Some other things that help: lose weight, put a brick, block or something about 2-4" under the top two legs of your bed to raise the head of the bed. That helps gravity work to keep the acid reflux from your stomach IN your stomach. Don't eat late at night. Eat a dinner at 6 pm or so, then don't snack or drink alcohol, as this will worsen the acid reflux (heartburn). Good luck!
wow, changed my life June 20, 2009 blue (colroado) i can now eat a full meal withut horrible heartburn and vomiting. my esophagus has healed and i can drink lemonade. thanks prilosec
