I am wondering if anyone else taking PPI medication is having the concerns that I have. I do not like taking a lot of pills so am concerned sbout having to take 40 mg twice a day. I don’t seem to be having problems with GERD now that I am watching my diet and eating small amounts. I want to do what is best but I want to stop taking so many pills when I seem to do well when I skip them. Any thoughts from others? Of course I have talked with the doctor and they want me to continue but when I forget snd take less I feel I am fine. I cannot tell that I am having GERD.

@i3440r I take the same amount as you. I can go a few weeks without taking omprazole then it is like BAM WHAM I end up with the stabbing dagger pains. Then I have to remember to start taking the pills exactly 30 minutes before i eat or they don't work. I as well do not like taking any kinds of pills. Wish there was a solution to the issue without taking pills.
