Pharmaceutical Drug Manufacturers

By: Joe Barton 08 October 2010- You are in agonizing pain from acid reflux and you need to do something. It is proven that there is a treatment for acid reflux but what will you choose?

Did you know that drugs like Nexium, Tagamet, Omeprazole, Prevacid and Zantac are only supposed to be used for 8 weeks maximum? Do you know the reason for this?

Acid Reflux Prescription Drugs Warning

Many people who have Acid Reflux Disease take prescription drugs like Prilosec or Nexium to treat their constant acid reflux disease. As these prescription drugs treat their reflux symptoms, long-term problems will arise as the body begins to produce extra amounts of hormone called gastrin. Gastrin simply tells your stomach to make more acid. I thought you wanted to get rid of the acid? Unfortunately, an excessive amount of gastrin can create cancer cells to grow, thus greatly increasing the risk of getting cancer in the stomach, esophagus and more. If you exceeded the 8 week period of acid reflux drugs, immediately consult your doctor about changing your treatment ASAP!

Another warning about prescription drugs is many sufferers take more than one prescription or medication (prescription or over-the-counter) together, and the effects of each drug can sometimes strengthen or null the effects of the other. Creating either a lethal or non-effective drug for your ailments. In some cases, this can lead to serious medical problems and even death can occur.
A third warning about prescription drugs is the abuse involved. Did you know that an estimated 4 million people use prescription drugs non-medically, which often lead to prescription addictions? Prescription drugs will sometimes make the body dependent upon them and an addiction can result.

Finally, did you know that prescription drugs build up toxins in your body? You typically want your body to flush toxins out! As you age, your decreasing metabolism will be less able to handle the medication.

What is wrong with Antacids?

Antacids (i.e. Pepcid, Zantac, Tagamet, Rolaids, and Tums) are only a band-aid for your medical problem of acid reflux (heartburn). You are not curing the heartburn but only treating the problem for a few hours. Also, many antacids contain excessive amounts of Sodium, Aluminum, Calcium, and Magnesium. Your body can only handle things in moderation and an imbalance amount of these minerals can cause cancer, high blood pressure and even Alzheimer's disease.
