I will check with the doctor and see if he can give me something stronger. Thanks so much for the input. It's much appreciated! >> I agree that you may need something stronger. I am an old hand with acid reflux and began with Zantac in my thirties. What I have found interesting...suspicious, really...is that as soon as these drug companies LOSE THEIR PATENTS and go over the counter...their drugs don't WORK for me anymore. Or for many others I know. Hmm. I took Prilosec for YEARS. It was perfect. Then it went over the counter and guess what! Within 3 weeks or so I was getting heartburn and acid reflux again. I switched to NEXIUM which costs a fortune and my insurance company does not cover it. So yes, by all means, Debbie, get a prescription and make sure you have that GERD under control. It's very important. Lil in Ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
