A member asked:
I am going to stop taking pantoprazole as i do not tolerate it well. can i start omeprazole the next day or there needs to be a cool down period or something?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You may start the next day. No cool down period would be required. Ask your doctor or do a search on other ways to limit gastric acid reflux such as keeping head above stomach, elevate head of your bed, eating multiple small meals vs fewer large ones, avoid hot spices, drink adequate water, and such.
