    The frequency of taking this medication (4X daily) is very difficult to follow. I've been taking it for 2 weeks (twice daily) and have not had any side effects from it. My reflux and post GB surgery related problems have eased considerably. I recommend this medication.

    I have been on this medication for a week. I have experience severe stomach pain, and severe nausea. These pills are so hard to swallow. I have noticed a little imporvement. But all in all I am not very satisfied with this medication.

    It seems to be working, a little chalky to eat and hard to swallow. Missed taking it one day until 6pm and was in excrutiating pain in intestines until a pill was taken. I will follow up with doctor..I think when I am done treatment I may need to be weaned from it.

    It has helped, but I have to take it 4 times a day and that is really difficult to do sometimes. Other than that, I would recommend it.
