Understanding Acid Reflux Disease

If you have persistent heartburn two or more days a week, despite treatment and diet changes, it could be more than just heartburn. It could be acid reflux disease.

Acid reflux disease is also known as GERD. GERD is short for gastroesophageal reflux disease (gas-tro-eh-sof-uh-JEE-ul RE-fluks disease).

Heartburn is the most common symptom of
acid reflux disease, also known as GERD.

Important Safety Information for Prevacid

If you suffer from persistent heartburn two or more days a week, despite treatment and diet changes, it could be acid reflux disease. Prescription Prevacid Capsules and Prevacid SoluTabTM (lansoprazole) Orally Disintegrating Tablets are used for the treatment of acid reflux disease including erosive esophagitis and for maintenance of healed erosive esophagitis. Your results may vary. Most erosions heal in 4–8 weeks. Prevacid may not be right for everyone and has a low occurrence of side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain and nausea. Symptom relief does not rule out other serious stomach conditions. Talk to your doctor or healthcare professional to see if Prevacid is right for you. Prevacid products should not be crushed or chewed.

Please see the complete Prescribing Information for more information and talk to your doctor.
