What Is The Alternative For Dexilant 60mg Prescribed For GERD?
Hi, I ve been taking medications for GERD for the last 20 + years. If I do not take anything, I don t even dare to take a sip of water. For the last couple of years, I ve been taking Dexilant 60 mg which works perfectly. The problem is, I m the only one working in my household and the co-pay is too high to pay and ordering through the mail is not an option at this time. Is there anything else on the market that works as good if not better with a lower price?

You can ask for a generic for dexilant. The generic name is dexlansoprazole and the generics, if avaialable are much cheaper.
If this is not available you can take generic omeprazole 40 mg once or twice daily depending on your symptoms which is much cheaper.
Kind regards
