Prevacid Dissolvables

Does anyone take Prevacid dissolvable tabs?
I have a weird side effect that I don't know if it is normal or not.
I take it and it makes my esophagus burn on the way down when I swallow after its dissolved on my tongue.
It also makes my esophagus and throat feel tight and constricted.
Does anyone else have weird side effects with this?

hmm.. I have had good experiences with it and I take it every day. I wonder if the burning is because of the damage from your reflux. I would ask the doctor about it, you may need to just take the gelcaps.

Re: Prevacid Dissolvables

Also, one more question...
Is it safe to take over the counter antacids like Gaviscon with Prevacid?

Re: Prevacid Dissolvables

hey.. sorry for the delayed response I've been away.. yes you can take both. My doctor actually told me to take Gaviscon before I go to bed since my worst reflux is at night.
