Treatment Info |
| Condition / reason: | | Heart Burn |
| Dosage & duration: | | one caplet taken once a day for the period of 6 months |
| Other conditions: | | None |
| Other drugs taken: | | None | | |
Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | After taking Aciphex for 1 week, my heartburn symptoms went completely away. |
| Side effects: | | None |
| Comments: | | My heartburn is triggered by many foods, not just spicy ones, but the Aciphex keeps the burn away even when I do eat spicy food or drink red wine. My biggest issue is that it takes more than 2 0r 3 doses over the same amount of days to feel any relief, and as soon as you stop taking it - the burn is back. It's also pricy, even with insurance. |
