re: Posters with heartburn/acid reflux what do you use

Year round with a prescription.
Over the counter they are only allowed to sell a 14-day course.

I still wouldn't recommend staying on proton pump inhibitors (prilosec/nexium/prevacid/protonix) for the long term though. The root cause problem is typically weak acid, prompting your body to produce more. PPI drugs prevent your body from producing more, relieving the symptoms, but causing other gut problems due to incompletely undigested foods. It may sound counter-intuitive initially, but you might want to try taking apple cider vinegar, which can help restore your stomach acidity to proper levels, fixing the systemic problem.
