I HAVE TRIED AXIFED AND 2 OVER THE COUNTER MEDS...PEPCID AND TAGAMET AND THEY ALL CAUSED MY HEART TO RACE ALOT. NEXIUM, ON THE OTHER HAND, MADE ME SO DWOWSEY AND CONFUSED I COULD BARELY GET OFF THE COUCH. GOOD LUCK FINDING SOMETHING. MY NEXT AND LAST MED TO TRY IS PROTONIX AND I WOULD REALLY RATHER NOT. HAVE HEARD SOME VERY BAD THINGS ABOUT THIS DRUG. I HAVE HEARD THAT MOST OF THESE MEDS ALSO GREATLY EFFECT THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. AND WHO KNOWS THE LONG TERM EFFECTS OF THESE THINGS EITHER????  GOOD LUCK TO YOU. HAPPY HUNTING.
