Prilosec OTC, the first proton pump inhibitor to be sold over-the-counter

July 2003

Patients will soon be able to buy Prilosec OTC, the first proton pump inhibitor to be sold over-the-counter.

Prilosec OTC will be out this fall... 20 mg like the Rx.

It's for patients with FREQUENT heartburn... 2 or more days a week. It's not for acute heartburn because it can take up to 4 days to see the full benefit.
