A member asked:
Please help! when to stop taking prevacid (lansoprazole) for gerds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2-3 months: If you were having a particularly bad time with GERD symptoms, try weaning yourself off the medication after 2-3 months and see what happens. You may be able to use the medication only as needed. If not, see your primary care provider for a more complete evaluation. Hope this helps!
