I’ve been taking Omeprazole for decades and Dexlansoprazole (Dexilant) for more than a decade. Ugh. I should be upset about this but it only result in me needing to take more PPIs.
I took omeprazole for years and found it very effective. However, I was concerned about side effects of long term use, and if I ran out, my heartburn would return worse than ever after only 2 days. It has that rebound effect. My doctor weaned me off it over a period of about two months and then started me on famotidine. Much safer and much cheaper. I’ve been fine with it.
Good Gravy! Where do I stand ?

Try Pepto Bismol tablets plus change your diet.
I use to eat chocolate bars and ice cream and drink coke. That was messing up my innards. I tried other medicine to fix the issue but it was the pink pills that did it and me changing my diet.
