Comment:
I have a hiatal hernia and GERD. I took aciphex 8 years ago and it really worked for me with NO side effects. Insurance stopped paying for it and I couldn't afford it. I tried ALL the other PPI's suffered all kinds of side effects. Aciphex went generic 6 months ago and now I can afford it. Started taking it again and relief again! No side effects.
