For GERD "I bought this due to chronic gastritis inflammation, bad GERD, hiatal hernia, and having Crohn’s IBD. I was told by several doctors that I could use it in between Protonix 40 mg ppi. I have been struggling for the past couple of months with really bad acid reflux to where it burns when the acid hits my intestines. Causes intense diarrhea and with Crohn's squeezing pains you can’t understand less you have it. Crohn’s is horrible, unfortunately. When I took the medication I felt “really off” like I just wanted to drop, felt like I didn’t have control of my nervous system. Laid down, and tried to calm myself down."

"It worked rather quickly for me. Within a 1/2 hour, I was feeling significantly better. I did, however, experience brief chest pain and tightness and a bit dizzy about 20 minutes after taking it. I've only taken one dose so far and hope that I'll be able to continue taking this as treatment for abdominal pain suspected of a peptic ulcer."

For Indigestion "Pepcid Complete 1 chewable tablet gave me relief within 30 min, but when I woke up 12 hrs after I took the drug, my urine is dark orange. Now, 4 days after, my urine is still orange, although lighter. I have been drinking a lot of water. Should I be worried?"
