Does anyone know what you can take for heartburn after having RNY?

I'm not sure with RNY but after the VSG they gave us protonix.

Hi, Heather.
Hopefully some RNYers will chime in (or you can post on the Main forum). I, too, am VSG, and Dr. Walton had me on Protonix for one month and then Prilosec OTC after that. I just have to take one per day (before breakfast), and I'm good to go. :)
Of course, the best person to ask is your doctor. You don't want to get him/her angry by self-medicating. :)
Blessings,
Mary

Prilosec OTC or it's generic name omeprazole. Start with one daily and if it persists you can take one in the morning and one in the evening. If that doesn't do the trick it's time to see the Dr. It has always worked really well for me. You can get this at Walmart or most anywhere for that matter.
