Overkill: Dexilant (dexlansoprazole) and Omeprazole belong to the same category of meds (ppi) different delivery system and zantac is h2 blocker which blocks acid production at a later part of the spectrum than ppi. We have mixed ppi and h2 blockers for severe gerd or persistent acid (tested by monitoring) but not two ppi as the side effects can increase like hypomagnesemia.
