When I went on Prilosec, if I stayed on it for more than the recommended 14 days I would start getting vertigo. And if I stopped it, I would have the worst acid reflux ever.
So I guess I'm gonna have to fight for my share of what's left of Pepcid.
I was on Zantac/ranitidine until they banned that due to cancer concerns. Switched to Pepcid recently and it works fine.

Same with me. I almost didn’t turn in my Ranitidine because I wanted to make sure there was another option beside Prilosec. I don’t have the issue all the time, but often enough. And my doctor warned me about potential long term side affects from Prilosec.
Been using the Famotadine and it works the same for me as Ranitidine did.
Prilosec is a PPI and Pepcid/Zantac are H2I/A.
I don’t like that we seem to be down to only one, single H2A. Not just Zantac forced off, but years ago Tagamet seemed to disappear.
