I took omeprazole originally when NEXIUM was prescribed by my doctor but my insurance would not pay for it. I had no problem just stopping one and starting the other.

I then went on NEXIUM in 2014 when it came on the OTC market. After two years, I switched to ranitidine up until I had a hernia repair and LINX augmentation done in 2018.

My surgery and LINX was a great success and I have not taken as much as one tum since. Ask your doctor about it,

Dr. Lipham at USC is my referral to you. Good luck.
