Patient Stories

...It's not easy, they're everywhere. Tomato juice, pasta sauce, you name it... they all put my acid reflux in a spin. I gave up pizza, picked them out of my salad, but when I ordered a BLT without the 'T', I had enough. It was time to see my doctor."

Everybody has a different experience with acid reflux disease. For many people foods made with tomatoes, such as pasta sauce or pizza, can trigger heartburn and aggravate the symptoms of acid reflux disease.

And since people have different needs with regard to treating heartburn associated with acid reflux disease, Prevacid comes in two different forms: one that's a pill and one that melts in your mouth. For many people with acid reflux disease, just one Prevacid a day can help prevent the acid that causes heartburn pain.



Most of these profiles are a compilation of various patient types and do not represent a single individual.

Prescription Prevacid is approved for GERD in children aged 1–17 years. Individual results may vary. Prevacid Capsules and Prevacid SoluTab^TM (lansoprazole) Orally Disintegrating Tablets may not be right for everyone. Prevacid has a low occurrence of side effects in adults and children including diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, constipation and headache. Symptom relief does not rule out other serious stomach conditions.
