[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 297377, member: 7083"] One thing to keep in mind - Prilosec OTC is 1/2 the normal dose. It's 20mg and full strength is 40mg. It might be worth checking out how much the generic is with a prescription. It might be cheaper than buying the OTC version. Also, if you're taking Prilosec - or any proton pump inhibitor - you want to make sure to take Calcium Citrate supplements. It has to be calcium citrate. Something about the proton pump inhibitors and not absorbing the other kind of calcium. And it's important that you take the calcium supplement because prolonged use of proton pump inhibitors can lead to osteoporosis. And make sure to get the petite pills. There's nothing petite about them, but if they're the petite version it makes me wonder how big the regular ones are. [/QUOTE]
