Reflux: What do you take?

I have been having reflux problems for about six months now. I have tried pepcid (seems to work the best so far), prilosec, and some new prescription med my doc gave me (it was timed release so it didn't work well). I take a dose of mylanta every night before bed also. Any suggestions on something to try? I have had a lot of stress lately, my daughter just got married last weekend and I have started training as a midwife. I am at my wits end.

I have Barrett's as a result of reflux and take prescription omeprazole 2x a day

 

I just started with reflux. The OTC stuff wasn't helping me enough so my doc called in a RX right away.  It is so uncomfortable and hurts.  I had no idea..

Good luck!!  xxoo

I take OTC omeprozole. When it gets really bad I take that 2 x a day.

Over the years I had tried many that my Dr. prescribed. One by one they stopped working. The last one was Aciphex and it never let me down.  I don't need it anymore since I had my surgery... yayayayaya

Carafate liquid from the doc works well for me. Gavascon seems to take my heartburn away for a long time. Protonix from the doc is amazing - took it before surgery for acid reflux that was eating my esophagus. Cleared that right up. Don't do timed released if you're a post op. Your doc should know that. Find something that works with our new pouch and will give you relief.

My dr prescribed me nexium and it works great fit me

Thanks for all the comments. Maybe I can get straightened out before long.

 

I am Protonix because my Celexa interferes with prilosec.
