Do you want to keep popping-in antacids for the rest of your life for heartburn? What do you think the safer option is? Try prilosec.
Heartburns are not in anyway related to the heart. It is due to the reflux of acid from the stomach to the food pipe or eosophagus. Prilosec stops some of the acid producing cells from working normally thus controlling the acid content of the stomach. Prilosec is a 24-hr heartburn relief pill. Have prilosec before having food and you need not bother about heartburns. Over a period of 14 days you would see the incidence of heartburns decreasing tremendously.
Prilosec is also known to treat Zollinger-Ellis syndrome, ulcers and inflammation in the oesophagus. In combination with an antibiotic it can be used to treat infection due to helicobacter pylori which causes peptic ulcers. Prilosec is different from other PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) because it acts on the acid pumps directly and plugs in their work as opposed to controlling the secretion of the acid.
The use of prilosec might have side-effects like headache, diarrhea and constipation. But you need not worry about them. Generic prilosec is available and you can avail it online.
