PPI vs maalox?

I am almost 2 weeks post op and take a dose of maalox before bed to help with discomfort from gas pains and gurgling. I currently am not taking a PPI but am wondering if I should switch from the maalox to a PPI? Does anyone know how long it is safe to regularly take maalox? Does a PPI provide the same relief?

    I have been taking my PPI for a year now for the same thing, sliming(gurgling). Pantoprazole 40mg twice a day does the trick. $10 per month with insurance.
