Heartburn

There's no one to blame for the pain from acid reflux, but a lot of people in the US are suffering from it. It can make it difficult to get or keep an acid-reflux-reducing medicine like Nexium or Prilosec to work, especially if they don't have the proper dosage or are too sensitive.

There are other acid-reducing medicines in use over the counter (OTC). For example, heartburn pills such as Nexium and Prilosec (omeprazole) are available over the counter (no prescription needed) but may not be suitable if you're taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as Prilosec.
