PRELIEF Acid Reducer Caplets Dietary Supplement, 300 Count (Pack of 2)

Freshness great. Great value and works!

Works well - I use it when eating acidy foods - helps to prevent acid stomach and reflux. I am very reactive to most medications/herbs, etc... so I only take a half of a Prelief with my foods that are acidy. I do use Ranitidine(generic for Zantac(h2 inhibitor)), however I take many hours before of after having used Prelief which I only take when eating. It does give me a bit of constipation. Be sure to read about what medications that must not be used with Prelief; abacavir / dolutegravir / lamivudine, Tivicay (dolutegravir) Triumeq (abacavir / dolutegravir / lamivudine) proton pump inhibiters(Prilosec, etc..), antacids(Tums, etc..) H2 inhibitors(Zantac), may also impact Calcium Channel Blockers and Calcium supplements, some Oral Quinolones, Tetracyclines(and many other other antibiotics). Prelief side effects by likelihood and severity: The following side effects are associated with Prelief: Common side effects of Prelief: Taste Problems Less Severe Infrequent side effects of Prelief: Incomplete or Infrequent Bowel Movements Less Severe Rare side effects of Prelief: Alkalosis Severe, Impacted Stool Severe, Kidney Stone Severe, Swollen Ankles or Feet Severe, Please keep in mind this is a perfectly safe and effective "supplement", but taking more is not better, and you must always be aware that anything you ingest, apply, inhale, etc... has an impact on you, and always speak with your pharmacist about the potential issues with medications and any "supplement". I will continue to use Prelief, but always safely. Know what you are putting in your body. http://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/calcium-glycerophosphate,prelief-index.html?filter=2&generic_only= http://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-77426/prelief-oral/details/list-interaction-medication

Have IC? Want to eat all the acid you dang well please? Here's your answer. I love Prelief and it's changed my life. Well, my diet restrictions anyway. If you're in full flare, this may not calm anything. It's preventative, not a cure, but I'm so happy that I can have my precious, precious caffeine and all the salsa I want again. *Edit, 2 years later: I still use this daily and although I still have IC flares occasionally, the cause is no longer diet related. Prelief has actually made me forget that I have IC most of the time. My personal case is considered severe, with complications resulting from also having even more severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. My RA flares do cause IC flares 2-4x/year and those are the only times that I have to do anything about my IC. I was previously getting bladder instillations 15-18x annually. One less major medical treatment to worry about in my life is priceless! I’m very skeptical and have a special hate for snake oil salesmen targeting desperate sufferers, but this remedy is legitimately helpful and has actually improved my life.

I was diagnosed with Intersticial Cyctitius at 18 (over 10 years ago). I suffer greatly if I eat or drink anything acidic or with a hit of spice- sometimes I would be bedridden practically for a month or more. I took a chance with preleif, as everything else I tried just seemed to make my conditions worse, and the botox in the bladder surgery only covered up the pain but didn't help the problem. Well, Preleif is something I carry everywhere with me now. Sometimes I take it just if I feel like I have a stressful day (with food of coarse). Since taking Preleif, I have gone nearly 2 years without any significant flare up. I will mention that I have removed most of the problem foods from my diet as well, but now I am able to at least eat my husbands amazing cooking and food with flavor! I probably am only using tablets 5-8 a day, and I know the pain I would be in if I didn't have Preleif. Preleif has literally changed my life for the better and I will never be without it. Best stuff ever!

Great for Interstitial cystitis. I use it along with D-Mannose. I use Prelief before drinking coffee. It’s a great help for my bladder health.

I have heard about Prelief from The People's Pharmacy show years ago. I finally tried them and they work really good for me. I have a terrible stomach. Heartburn...Gerd...stomach aches ...all the time. I read that using Omeprazole (Prilosec) for an extended period of time can soften your bones and I now have Osteoporosis in my back. I'm not sure that is the reason why but I decided to try the Prelief and they have done a great job for me. I usually take 2 before a meal and sometimes after a meal. I've had gerd pop up late at night and I've taken Prelief instead of Tums or anything else and they quelled the burn!! I was so happy. I give them to friends now. They don't always work but I am learning to take them before drinking sodas or anything that is acidic.

These pills are helpful in reducing the acid of your urine. I find you do need more than two for it to work. It does enable a person who has multiple dietary restrictions to sometimes eat foods that have high acidity. They do seem, however, to cause constipation so you may need something to counteract this side effect. I am currently taking Benefiber prebiotics which seems to help mitigate the constipating effects of this pill. You can't overdose on acidic foods even with the help of these pills if you have the diagnosis of interstitial cystitis or painful bladder syndrome but it does help.

Good for acid reduction 👍

Prelief works really well to reduce acid if you want a coffee or a meal that might be abit acidic. I cant have a coffee without it. I love it.
