I am lactose intolerant and suffered severe diarrhea for days before finding out there was lactose in it. This product should be labeled better for having lactose in it

I bite tablet in half. It has been working good. Pills last twice as long and half the risk of side efects. Zantac doesn't work.

Comment:
I tried Zantec for almost a year. It didn't work. I know the health risks of Prilosec. I would rather die happy than misarable. No option. I cant do without. Not an option.
