Question for the vets!
Hello, I have a question that I hope someone can answer. I take a RX Prilosec daily, and was advised to take it when I have some stomach acids built up. I always take my multivitamin first thing in the morning, then space out my other vitamins throughout the day. I want to be sure that my Prilosec will be effective when I take it, so when would be the best time of the day, when I do have stomach acids to break it down?
Thanks everyone!

prolisec - generic Omeprozole works by blocking release of acid. It does not work that well after the acid is already out.. It may take a day or 2 for a full effect. So if you take that - taking it every day - should do the trick. I take mine first am on empty pouch.

I have taken fantomine (Previcid) everyday for since surgery five and half years ago. Will take one PRN when "Oscar" is being a grouch.
OMG--love it! I am going to start using 'Oscar' for code of I cannot have something with my husband.
