Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I take Prevacid 30 mg for acid reflux and have done for 15 years. This last week seems it s not working so I wanted to take some Tagament to see if my body has built a resistants to Prevacid. I m schulded to have a EDG on the 22th of this month.
Tagament can be used along with the Prevacid if you want to try the two together to see if they would help with the acid reflux.
It is also important to review your diet to see if anything there may be contributing. the bacteria, H. pylori, can also cause severe or resistant reflux which requires a course of antibiotics along with the reflux medication.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James,
General & Family Physician
