I got off Aciphex (sp) ten years ago and had to suffer through horrible acid rebound for two months. I weaned myself off with Zantac. I now take nothing. Control the reflux by eliminating coffee, carbonated drinks and too many carbs. I take an occasional Zantac and avoid trigger foods. Doctors don’t tell you that you will experience rebound when you try to get off the PPI. It is not the disease but the rebound that keeps us hooked on the PPI. Modern medicine is designed to hand us pills for everything and masking symptoms rather than eliminating the underlying cause. I have accepted that I cannot eat or drink in my sixties what I could in my twenties. I realize not everyone can get off these medicines due to other or more serious underlying medical conditions, but worth some looking into.
