Question:	i want to know this product from P&G? and the photo show "product of Sweden" or Origin: Imported (India
Answer:	There is a long answer to this on their website under “product-specific questions.”
Question:	Is this product in blister packs? I refuse to buy anything in these frustrating packages. If it is bottles, OK. Thanks for your reply
Answer:	Yes. But this works better for some reason. For 15 years, I've been taking prevacid and zantac EVERY DAY. I take a daily med that causes this. One day I was bike riding w my teen son. I had horrible heartburn and we were too far from home to go back. The only store was whole foods. I'll be honest, I was super skeptical but also desperate so I bought these and one tablet worked wonders. I am now taking one a night and haven't taken my OTC meds in a week. Oh and also, tums didn't usually work for me so there must be something abt the herbal blend that helps.

Why Choose Prilosec OTC?

Prilosec OTC (24HR) reduces stomach acid production by shutting down many of the pumps in the stomach that produce acid, so you don't get heartburn in the first place.*

It's possible while taking Prilosec OTC. Use as directed for 14 days to treat frequent heartburn. Do not take for more than 14 days or more often than every 4 months unless directed by a doctor. Not for immediate relief.

Acid Controllers

Acid controllers, or H2 Blockers (12HR), only partially reduce acid production by blocking just one of the signals that tell your body to produce acid. Relief starts in as little as 30 minutes, but only lasts 8-12 hours.

Antacids

Antacids (3HR) neutralize the acid in the esophagus that causes heartburn, but do not reduce the production of stomach acid. Relief is immediate, but only lasts for 1-3 hours.

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the expiration date
Answer:	Comunícate con servicio al cliente de Amazon ellos te ayudarán con tu pedido
Question:	Do the capsules open easily
Answer:	In 3 small bottles, each containing 14 20mg. capsules.
Question:	Is this magnesium trihydrate as nexium or dihydrate
Answer:	Yes it does. Researched a number of sites re that same question, including drugs.com, webmd and pfizer. The only diff is that OTC is 20 mg instead of the 40 mg prescription. So if you need to take 40, just double up. It's still cheaper! From what I gather, 20 mg is intended for maintenance...whereas 40 is for healing. I was taking 40 for many yrs prescription until ins co stopped coverage, and I AM THRILLED it's now OTC. Nothing helps me like Nexium, and I gave all the classes...generic and brand in each class...a patient try. And suffered. I'm trying 20 Nexium but will see. Have GERD and hiatal hernia, so may need to double up. Good luck!
Question:	If you do subscribe and save, does this stabilize pricing
Answer:	The pharmacist is the one who showed me where to get the OTC Nexium, since I don't have prescription insurance. The cost of the prescription was $200. The cost of the OTC (at that pharmacy) was $46 (that's with having to take 2 OTC rather than 1 prescription). The pharmacist told me it's exactly the same except for the price.

Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs)

PPIs are for people with frequent heartburn that occurs two or more days per week. PPIs deactivate the pumps in the stomach lining from producing acid, significantly inhibiting acid production at the source. When taken every four months as a 14-day course treatment, Amazon Basic Care Esomeprazole Magnesium provides up to 24 hours of relief.

Acid Reducers (H2s)

Acid reducers provide relief for 6-12 hours by inhibiting histamine—a substance that stimulates secretion of stomach acid—to partially block production of acid in the stomach cells. Taken an hour before a meal, histamine H2-receptor antagonists (H2 blockers) work to relieve and prevent heartburn associated with meal-induced acid indigestion.

Antacids

Antacids provide quick but temporary relief by neutralizing stomach acid to relieve heartburn. They work quickly to help occasional short-term heartburn pain resulting from spicy foods or over-eating.

Common heartburn triggers

Heartburn is a painful, burning sensation in the lower chest or throat that occurs when stomach acid backs up and irritates the sensitive lining of the esophagus. Food that is acidic, spicy, rich and fatty, as well as caffeinated beverages, alcohol and dairy products can trigger frequent heartburn episodes.

Long-lasting, 24-hour relief

Heartburn can be a painful distraction when you need to focus. One capsule per day provides 24 hour relief of heartburn symptoms.*

*Use as directed for 14 days for treating frequent heartburn. Not intended for immediate relief of heartburn; this drug may take 1 to 4 days for full effect.

Never miss a moment

Imagine your life uninterrupted by heartburn. What do you see? Perhaps experiencing new culinary delights while on vacation, or enjoying special moments with family and friends. Amazon Basic Care Esomeprazole Magnesium will help you forget about heartburn pain so you can savor each moment.*

User questions & answers

Question:	Manufactured from where
Answer:	Each "pack" contains 42 pills. The 5 pack should contain 210 pills. However, $24.99 for a 5 pack is a mistake that the vendor needs to correct. I reported this problem to Amazon. Also I noticed that more than one vendor sells from this page.
Question:	Can you cut this in half to make it 10mg dose
Answer:	It works differently on everyone's shipping model. Some people will charge 17.00 free shipping and others charge 11 for the product and 5.99 for shipping. It's the same exact price it's just how shipping is set up. The best way to know the lowest price including shipping is by seeing all offers. The one at the top is the cheapest typically. They factor shipping into that as well
Question:	When is the expiration date
Answer:	It is high-rise. It could come up to belly button or it could cover belly button slightly.
Question:	is this better than Nexium
Answer:	No, there is no lining in the crotch.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is zegrid a proton pump inhibitator
Answer:	Expiration dates are determined by when the product is ordered but all sellers comply with Amazon policies.
Question:	Your ad says 84-count but it only shows 1 box and doesn't say it is 2 boxes? Please correct your ad
Answer:	I can't answer that fairly, but I do know that Nexium has some unpleasant side effects; my brother was prescribed Nexium and had to stop. I haven't had any side effects with Prilosec.
Question:	Is this packaged in bottles or blister packs
Answer:	This specific product may be purchased by anyone without a prescription, that is you don't need the approval of a doctor or medical professional to buy it. There is another (professional strength) prilosec that only a medical professional may prescribe.
