Question: Tagament or zantac, which is better .?
I've decided I have an ulcer..
Please don't tell me to see a doctor because that isn't going to happen..I had an ulcer years ago and I was prescribed one med and that didn't work so well, and then the other..The second one worked really well...But I can't remember which one was prescribed in which order !
I believe the ulcer is just past my stomach.

Answers:
They are pretty much the same thing. Should work the same if you have the right dose. Over the counter Prilosec is a different class with a different mechanism of action. I have come to believe that the medications might be more of a cause than a cure. I was on zantac in the AM and prilosec in the evening. Now I do neither, use lots of Celtic sea salt, and only eat real food. No more processed foods of any kind. I had an ulcer and a hyetal hernia with horrible heart burn. Since the change, I have only experienced heart burn 1 time in the last year. But you should know that I also stopped taking 8 different prescription drugs. Who knows what the key change was. But I now believe that the key is to increase the acid, not block it. Health Question & Answer
