Looks like that is the same as the PPI that most of us are prescribed after surgery. It is to help with the acid build up in the new sleeve. I'm on 40 mg of Protonax for the first 2 months. Talk to your doctor here in the states and see if there is something they can prescribe for the acid.

That's a PPI and yes, I was given a two month supply post-op. If you can't stomach the one you were given, you can buy them over the counter in any drug store or grocery store. Nexium and Prilosec are the brand names, but there are cheaper generics available.

I was given three month supply of Prilosec. To be taken every eight hours, basically two times a day. I take in am and pm. It helps your sleeve heal because acid makes it harder for your sleeve to heal. This is what I was told.

Ok so I should try a anti acid pill till one works I guess. I appreciate all the info guys. Ty

I was prescribed what's basically Pepcid AC to take twice a day for a month to prevent ulcers.

i was prescribed Pepcid for 3 months to help with healing,

I was prescribed Zantac twice a day for 1 month.

I am taking Prilosec twice a day. The ones they gave me (in mexico) to bring home were Ranitidina... which I think is Zantac.

I was given an rx for pepcid twice a day and told to also take tums for the first 6 weeks.

yep 3 month script for omeprazole (generic prilosec) You'll be happy to have it, just find one you can tolerate.

Same here.

I was given a liquid called carafate to coat my stomach 2x a day no drinking eating an hour before or after. Then Prilosec for 1 year.

And I have not had any acid issues since surgery january 26th!

I realize I was actually given generic Pepcid to take, not Prilosec. Sorry. Surgery was a week ago and I haven't learned all my med names well yet.

Ok I found one I could tolerate prilosec. Stomach is turning around 100% must of been all the acid hurting me when I ate.
