Bleeding, Bert the carpet round Buffs is on one a day, for the rest of his time. They prescribe them if you have to take another drug that has known side effects that include stripping the stomach lining away.
I got them with anti inflammatories, which I don't need to take every day, just when the arthritis kicks off. I'm supposed to take Omeprazole with it, but the anti inflammatories don't really upset me, so I save the Omeprazole for whenever I get gutsache, or if I'm going to do something likely to give me gutsache.

Alcohol and spicy food ..asking for trouble.
If I am on the piss..I tend to eat as little as I can get away with.
The stomach can only take so much.

Those saying that they take Lansoprazole daily, what forever? Aint it meant to be a course, say 8 weeks, and isn't meant to be taken every day indefinitely?
As for taking one when you've had a ruby, ffs, aint these pills meant to be for people that have serious problems, not for someone who may belch for a while after a curry??

I have changed mine, I haven't had my heartburn for about 3 years. I lost 3 stone started exercising etc. but then it has just come back...
That's why I tried this apple cider vinegar and that seems to have worked for me in the past couple of weeks.
What else did you change in your diet? I think spicy food is doing it for me right now as I have started eating more spices and spicier food.

Lansoprazole 15mg daily at first, but now just as needed
I found the key for me was avoiding certain foodstuff
ie Red wine, Onions, Pastry & certain Cheeses
Eliminating those, I still have the odd problem & use the tablets then

Lansoprazole for the last few years or an operation. I took the pills and they have changed my life as I've had problems even when drinking a glass of water from when I was a kid.
Anyway the doc has now asked me to ease off of them because I'm not absorbing the correct nutrients from my diet and long term this isn't the answer.
Stopped using them and kept and eye on what I eat and it's going ok but I do have a stash of Rennies close by if it flares up.
Oh and prop one side of your bed up by a few cms by putting something under the legs

That's funny mike. You say "not for acid reflux" and then give the same answer as the article on acid reflux that I posted.
It says....
"Drinking apple cider vinegar can help cure acid reflux and indigestion, according to natural health expert and author of "Alkalinize or Die," Thomas Baroody. Most reflux is caused by having too little acid in the stomach, not too much. Baroody's recommendation is to drink 1 cup of water with 1 tbsp. vinegar mixed in before meals to keep your indigestion symptoms at bay"
So...................apparently it works.

do honey and cider vinegar every day, not for acid reflux, i dont think it helps that, but what did help was" HCL BETAINE," which is hydrochloric acid , (whats in your gut) the premise being that you get reflux because you are deficient in it ,hence theres not enough to break down the food properly, i started taking them and it sorted me right out, GOOGLE IT
