Is losec to be used with something like Zantac? Or on it’s own?
Yeah it can get very painful and if I end up throwing up from the heartburn I always have blood in my vomit due to my esophagus getting irritated.

sounds like you have Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). it’s caused by the shrinkage of the gastric valve which allows the acids of the stomach to flow back into your esophagus causing irritation which sometimes triggers throwing up.

what Losec does is that it reduces the production of acids in the stomach. it should be taken a couple of hours before going to bed.

Losec is one generation up from Zantac-300. Zantac-75 is much milder and is available Over the counter which for Losec and Zantac 300 you need a prescription from the doctor.
