A member asked:
Throat clearing problem for a year, also heartburn, thinking it might be gerd, is it safe to take prilosec without asking my doctor, would this help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes take, but: What you need is an ENT evaluation. The throat is where the symptoms are and a direct look at this region is in order.
