what do you take for heart burn?

what do you take for heart burn?

I am a big fan of prilosec... i used to take nexium but then my  insurance changed and it wasn't on their formulary and it was just too expensive and so the doc switched me to something else that didn't work then i tried the prilosec and i have been taking it for a year or so off and on as needed and it works great!

I take nexium everyday, My doc put me on it for 6 months after surgery to prevent ulcers. you should tell your doc if your having heart burn this early out I would think.  Good Luck  Estelle

Thanks for your suggestions guys!!

I take Pecid... my surgeon also had me take it everyday for the first six months. Now just as needed... Lynn

I took zegerid, then switched to prilosec (OTC) and now I am back on Zegerid.  If you are having actual heartburn symptoms I'd talk to your surgeon as I think that's fairly unusual.

My doctor had me on Nexium for 60 days following surgery to help heal my stomach, and prevent ulcers.  You really shouldn't be having heartburn/stomach pain at this point, so I will go along with the others and say that a call to your surgeon is in order. Hope that you are feeling better soon,

Previcid morning and nite.
