Prilosec OTC

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Prilosec OTC is great for heartburn and actually lasts for the full day. I was not really happy with the aftertaste that it left even swallowing the pills. I preferred the flavored but would definitely recommend anyone that enjoys spicy food that causes heartburn to use Prilosec. It really works.

From the mouth of a 6 year old

As we were sitting down to eat dinner, one of the prilosec commercials came on the television. It was the one with the man walking through a parking garage talking about heartburn. A little bit into the commercial he has about 6 little fires on his suit coat. My 6 year old says "If he would have stopped, dropped and rolled he wouldn't have had that problem!" I had to stop what I was doing and sit and laugh. Thought this was just too cute and wanted to share with you guys!

Magnesium Absorption

I used this product for over 5 years. It was the best medication I found to help with my acid reflux. However, last year I began to experience seizures and memory loss. It was diagnosed as a Magnesium aborption issure related to prolong us of Prilosec. The FDA has issued a warning as to this side effect along with Calcium absorption issues. I contacted the manufacturer via email, but have not recently heard a resolution to my medical expenses related to their product. Please have your Magnesium and Calcium levels check by your physician.

Helps Me Eat What I like

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before taking Prilosec, I had frequent heartburn. I tried avoiding foods but it didn't help. Then, I found Prilosec. Now, I can eat what I want without hours of heartburn and discomfort. I'm happy I can enjoy food again!

Plan of action

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to treat heartburn with occasional single use tablets, but results were hit and miss. I needed a better plan of action. Enter Prilosec OTC 14-day tablets. Now I take one tablet per day to block heartburn. And it works!

Really works!

Heartburn is not something normal for me. When it first started occurring about a week ago I didn't realize what it was. My menstrual cycle had be pretty rough for me this month (sorry tmi) as far as menstrual cramps so I had been talking a lot of ibuprofen 800 mg. it occurred to me two days ago omg I think the medicine I'm taking is causing the weird feeling in my stomach right in the middle. It was mild to where ginger ale helped it right away. It would only get terrible early in the morning. Then today was awful. My husband woke up hearing me in pain! I asked for ginger ale. Then later on I did research and realized omg you can get ulcers from to many NSAIDS! Which has always been my fear and reasons I done like taking them. I tried Roland's... Not much help at all. Then I remembered my hubby bought prilosec earlier in the year. I thought oh no it could take 1-4 days to work! Not for me. The moment I took I had instant relief. I cannot thank prilosec enough. It saved me from so much pain. I was hunched over the pain kept coming back to back every few seconds. I still feel little things here and there but not to where I'm in pain. I hope it lasts the full 24 hrs! If not I will see a doctor because this all really scares me.

love prilosec-hate the packaging

per doctors instructions, I take prilosec OTC daily. It has helped my heartburn greatly. Love the product. My problem is with the packaging. I am 75 years old with the start of arthritis in my hands. Pushing the pill through the foil is almost impossible for me. There must be a better way to package this great product. I'm sure I'm not the only person having problem getting the pill out of the package. I have not used the generic yet because I have had such wonderful results from your product, but I'm afraid I will have to. I would have written sooner, but I've been busy picking up the prilosec off the floor where most of them landed during the opening of the package. thank you for any consideration.

My life is so much better with this once-a-day solution!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Prilosec OTC has definitely improved my quality of daily living. I’m sleeping better, I can enjoy many of my once trigger foods and drinks in moderation, and I no longer have to keep antacids stashed in my purse, car, and bedside “just in case’. By just taking a single dose per day, I can alleviate the distress caused by my frequent heartburn for a 24-hour period and get on with embracing life!

MidWestGal

Tried 1 Prilosec OTC daily at first but that didn't help control my GERD. Dr told me to take 2 Prilosec OTC daily to keep acid reflux under control. Had to stop after 10 days. The side effects were severe. All over body cramps from head to toes, due to depletion of magnesium in the body. Stomach pains and the diarrhea was horrible. Took Nexium samples from the Dr for 10 days, and no side effects, able to sleep soundly but the cost of $8. per 1 pill daily stopped me from filling that prescription. Now only take Prilosec OTC 1 every 3-4 days to keep ahead of the GERD.
