I took for 14 days and it did not relieve my symptoms at all. I continued to have heartburn and acid reflux daily while taking Zegerid. Also had the lump in the throat feeling. I finally went to my doctor, who started me on Nexium (free samples), and within 3 days I had relief. Now seven days later I am symptom free.
