I used to use Aciphex until my insurance company decided they didn't want to cover it anymore. They even denied my doctor's letter. They said I had to try protonix. I just use Prilosec OTC every day, one a day. The other day I was at the Costco and found their brand. It works just as well and is about $15 cheaper. If you just get yourself into the habit of taking one acid reducer per day, it will REALLY help!

I use generic equivalent Zantac as it works best for me.

Hi Final Oh that pred. burning. I take Pariet 10 mg twice a day at supper and it helps although I try not to eat after 7pm and definitely no sweets for me at that time .The worst is waking up with it running up the throat not good. Hope you get some help with this it sure can be nasty. As I lowered it got better .Hope your feeling better then last week been wondering how your doing.lol gail
