From Collegiate Presswire's RadioWire (https://www.cpwire.com/radio): Radio Good news for frequent heartburn sufferers � the popular prescription medicine Prilosec is now available over the counter - as Prilosec OTC, the only medication of its type available without a prescription. One pill provides 24-hour relief by shutting down the release of acid at its source, eliminating heartburn. Wal-Mart pharmacist Lori Mendoza says the 50 million Americans who suffer from heartburn more than twice a week, should ask their pharmacists if Prilosec OTC is right for them:
�Prilosec O-T-C is indicated for frequent heartburn, for those people who suffer two or more times a week, and it�s a great option for those people with frequent heartburn. But, we do think that patients should come to pharmacists to consult them before taking the medication.�
If you have questions about heartburn and the latest treatment options, ask your local Wal-Mart pharmacist, check your doctor or visit w-w-w-dot-prilosec-o-t-c-dot-com.
