Prevacid just quit?

I have been on Prevacid since week two and its been doing great for me. Now, for the past two days, it is like I haven't even taken it. Anybody have this happen or know what's going on? Do people switch ppi's every so often because their bodies become accustomed?

Try Nexium, it's the best!!!!

I've been on Prevacid for 4 1/2 years and it still works like a charm. I take one about every 3rd day.

My Prilosec was working great but then I developed an allergy.  Next I tried Tagament, worked for a few days and then "quit".  Then it was on to Zantac 150; it seemed to be working too and then "quit" after a couple weeks.  Now I'm on Protonix and it appears to be working well, although lately I've had some breakthrough acid in the evening.  I'm only taking one a day so at my next appt we'll talk about if I need to bump that up to two. 

Bottom line:  yeah, I think PPIs can "quit" on you. 

Definitely.  I've switched three times.  Nexium is working for me now. 

I've been on ALL of them.  I currently take prescription Prilosec twice a day, and 1 ZANTAC right before bed.  I have Nexium, too, I was on the Max dose for the past 3 months, 80 mgs a day.  Keep asking for help from your surgeon, or Gastro doc.  I have a Gastro doc since my issues were so crazy!
