Heartburn Medications

If consumers take a prescription medication for frequent heartburn, we encourage them to talk with their doctor about whether any over the counter medications might work for them and the condition being treated.

Benefits of Over the Counter (OTC) drugs

Using an OTC drug is convenient and eliminates time waiting to get your prescription filled at the pharmacy. If a member's doctor agrees that an OTC is right for them and the condition being treated, they might save money on the OTC.
