Testimonials

Just letting you know how happy I was with Prilosec. I made an order at 9am on Tuesday and received it first thing this morning (Friday). I was expecting it to take about a week. I live in a small coastal town and our pharmacies just don't have a very big range or its not in stock and it's usually very pricey. Thanks for the posibility to order Prilosec pills online.
Inga E.

After two weeks of taking Prilosec I noticed my face looking younger and healthier. I was getting complements from my girlfriends asking me what I was doing. So then I told them about Prilosec and now you have 4 new customers buying your products. Thank you so much for Prilosec.
Tanya

Erix,

Different definition / meanings for the word "Antibiotics":
Drugs used to treat infection.

What are the differences between Prilosec brand-name drugs and Prilosec generic drugs?
You probably know that pharmaceutical companies carry out extensive research and clinical testing to win approval from the Food and Drug Administration for new drugs. The new drug is then protected by patent for at least 10 years. Hence, a brand-name drug. When the patent expires another drug company can "copy the recipe" for Prilosec brand drug. This "copy" is called a generic drug. The FDA requires that generic drugs have the same active chemical composition, be dispensed in the same dosage form such as a tablet or capsule and be taken in the same dosage as the brand-name drug.
Pharmacybrandname.com recommends the use of a generic drug only when it is "A" rated, the highest bioequivalent rating by the FDA.

Different definition / meanings for the word "Heartburn":
The most common symptom of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease. This is usually described as a burning in the chest that may radiate up toward the throat. This is caused by acid juices that back flow from the stomach into the esophagus. It usually becomes more severe after eating, lying down or even bending over.
