robynluevano 85 Posted October 10, 2012 I was on a prescribed PPI, 40 mg once a day, I just ran out & don't have an appointment until the 17th. I had some at home that I bought, but it is 20 mg. should I take it twice a day since I was on the 40 mg before? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShapeShifter 64 Posted October 10, 2012 I wonder if you could try taking one, and then take another later in the day if it needs a boost... until you can confirm with the doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robynluevano 85 Posted October 10, 2012 I notice a lot more "bubbles" later in the day, and "hunger" where I don't feel hungry in the beginning of the day. I will try two for now, and see how I feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdefabio 73 Posted October 10, 2012 You can absolutely take two. I do but it's broken up. One a half hour before Breakfast and the other a half hour before dinner.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iegal 460 Posted October 10, 2012 Take as needed. I took one in morning and in evening. My new tummy was MAD about surgery for those first couple of months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesHRN 114 Posted October 10, 2012 You can take 2 for a total of 40 if that is what you are suppose to have or if you want call the DRs office for refill if you don't have any refills on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
