    It's over the counter and I would just take it for heartburn. Didn't think about consulting a doctor for it because its OTC. Eventually, I kept taking it more and more often because I was having heartburn more frequently. It causes a rebound effect when it wears off which causes your body to produce even more stomach acid. One day I saw a story relating long term use of proton pump inhibitors to a long list of side effects mainly relating to your body not properly digesting food because you don't produce enough stomach acid. So that's when I realized it was creating the heartburn problems and I started getting off it.

    I use to market that **** and I regret it. We all knew that long-term use of Prilosec OTC was unhealthy yet a key focus for marketing was driving product loyalty.

    Too bad we dont have a government program to regulate such issues like other 1st world nations.

    I've heard about 20 different pronunciations of this today ... "omnicrom", "omnicron", "omeecrom", "omeecrum"... wth... it's all Greek to me.

    So I found out my friend, who is an X-ray tech manager, was forced to take both vaccines to remain employed. 9 days later, and she had to have help with a ventilator. The ER doc said he is seeing far more people needing vents who are triple vaxed.

    Stop the madness. Covid is here to stay; just like the flu. And the vaccine doesn't work.

    you can’t possibly be this ignorant!

    FWIW,

    Trump got the vaccine during his last days in the white house.
    some 11 mos later, the obsese 70+ yr old is still alive and kicking​

    You're the one not paying attention. The vaccine helped initially, but is not doing much at all with the Delta variant. Yet people are now being forced to take a vaccine that simply is no longer effective.

    And it's "obese" and Trump was never obese. Good to see you at least acknowledge that the vaccine was made during his admin. And Both Biden & Harris said they wouldn't take it...

    actually, ur not paying attention';

    the fully vaccinated obese 70+ yr old Trump is still alive and kicking,
    so too is the 77-yr old Biden, who is not obese like orange hair

    empirical evidence which contradict your baseless claim

    One is in full dementia. Amongst far worse decisions he made when he had his facilities.
    Wrong forum, but I'm amazed at how many refuse to look at the current data.

    Fascinating. Thanks for sharing. I can provide proof of all of it. But you have a 15% post to like ratio. That's close to Manny, and nobody respects him, either.

    in a roundabout way, by diverting the discussion away from vaccines, this amounts to an admission that you’re wrong w the false claim that vaccines don’t work

    Trump & Biden are vivid egs that vaccines work; it'd appear that u've conveniently ignored these egs

    1) The booster is effective
    2) Trump is obese
    3) No one said they wouldn't take the vaccine

    try google for 5 seconds before posting, its pretty easy. Try less Joe Rogen

    I'm just getting over Covid and it was a pain in the ass even fully vaccinated. At least I don't have to report back to work until the 13th.
