"Have been taking Tagamet for 35 years. I first had them for stomach ulcers, which were cured 20 years ago thanks to an Australian guy who discovered ulcers could be cured with antibiotics. I have had them ever since for acid reflux. Nothing else suits. Problem is cimetidine seems to be unavailable in tablet form in the UK at the moment. I can only get it in medicine, which gives me diarrhea. As is life."

"For those of you who have laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), this has been a lifesaver. I have been struggling with GERD for over three years. I was prescribed multiple PPIs; however, they were moderately effective. Even though I had daily problems with this, one day before going to work, my GERD was so severe, I was gagging on phlegm and stomach acid. I had severe shortness of breath and didn't feel like I would be able to stay at work. In many ways, it felt like a panic attack. During a break, I bought some Tagamet. Within 30 minutes, I was 75% better. No other medication had ever done this. Highly recommended. LPR is a very underdiagnosed medical problem. It is very asymptomatic of normal GERD. Research it!!!!"
