Mark’s story
“I’m a pretty upbeat person – I enjoy my job and I also love unwinding with a few drinks at the end of the day. But lately people say I’ve not been myself – my digestive system is the problem. I’m getting heartburn a couple of times a week and an acidic taste in my mouth. I had this problem a few years ago – at the time I thought it was an ulcer, but the Doctor said it was just excess acid and he gave me a tablet which cleared it up.”
“It’s getting quite bad now as I’m up at all hours taking antacid tablets. They do work but in particular at night, the effect wears off and I’m awake again. I often have to be up early for my job, and I just can’t do it if I’ve been in discomfort all night. It’s got so I don’t bother going out with my mates anymore as it’s not worth it for the ‘payback’.”
Pantoloc Control® advice
Mark is having to cut down on his normal activities because of his heartburn and acid regurgitation. His Doctor prescribed a PPI several years ago and that worked well. If possible he would like to get a similar treatment from the pharmacist without having to go to the Doctor. Pantoloc Control® offers a new effective treatment OTC for heartburn, so this is a possible choice for Mark, whose heartburn is occurring about twice a week.
