Question for those who have acid reflux

[Beachlady]

Omeprazole (nexium) helped me more than Zantac. Also I always keep some gaviscon handy.

When I was undergoing chemo Gaviscon was a life-saver! I forgot all about that one--thanks for reminding me.

My wife and I both take Pantoprazole. We've been on it for years. It does the job but we still follow the FODMAP diet. We kept a food diary for a couple of months and made note of foods that aggravated things. Sadly, that means strictly limiting or eliminating some foods we love (pizza etc.). We still indulge occasionally and pay the price but sometimes its worth it

Positive thoughts

I currently take Pantoprazole and have had a lot of success with it. Was on 40mg. My doc took me down to 20mg recently. She wants to try and wean me off of it because of those studies that suggest a link between long term PPI use and risk of Alzheimer's. Don't know if there is truly a link. And i really don't like the idea of stopping it, because Pantoprazole is the only thing that's truly helped my reflux.
