A member asked:

Dr prescribed prevacid (lansoprazole). but it cost too much. what is cheap alternative for silent reflux? has to be liquid because i can't swallow pills.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There's not one: Unfortunately, to get the PPIs in a liquid form means they have to be compounded by a pharmacy. They will all cost about the same because only the name brands are compounded as far as I know. Check with your pharmacist to be sure
