Liquid Prilosec?

I was at the surgeon's for my pre-op screening yesterday and I got my post-op prescriptions. One is for liquid Prilosec which, according to both pharmacies I checked, doesn't exist. 

Are there other liquid options?  Is this even necessary since the nexium pills I currently take are so small?  I trust my surgeon, but I feel like he might be taking the liquid only this for two weeks to an extreme that is unnecessary. 

they just have me open the prilosec capsule and swallow the little beads. no liquid needed.  

I have not idea, but I was given the capsule form and had no problems taking it right away. It's pretty small. I'd ask your doctor about it though.

Thanks guys. :)

while le waiting for the doc's nurse to call me back, I bought some of the capsules. So worst case I can break those into something to swallow!

I was prescribed liquid Zantac, aka ranitidine. I took 150mg 2x daily.

There is a liquid Prilosec, it has to be made by the pharmacy. It's very expensive but CVS had it and quoted me a price. I just decided to go with the capsules, open them and put them in apple sauce or yogurt.
