Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Hello Everyone, Olivia's been on a PPI (Prilosec/Losec) since we've been home from the convention but she's still belching very loudly and saying " my puke just came up, but don't worry I swallowed it " . I guess I must be too concerned looking since she's trying to comfort me about it... I'll have to watch myself better. My question is... does the PPI stop reflux altogether or just make it non acidic by turning off the proton pump so that when reflux occurs it doesn't burn? Or does it take a while for the body to adjust to the new med? She's only been on the new " upped " dose for 5 days now (4ml twice daily, 2mg/ml) Thanks!
