amytug 996 Posted March 7, 2013 My paperwork said 40 mg Prevacid but dh couldn't find it. this is all they had, 15 mg 24 hour release stuff. It's ok right? I'm 5 days out, if it matters. I'm posting a pic but sometimes they don't show up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrsG 329 Posted March 7, 2013 Prevacid comes as over the counter 15mg and prescription which is 30mg. I would say 2 tablets would be enough. I'm on protonix which is 40mg. So I'm thinking the 40mg is a typo on your paperwork? If you're unsure just call your dr office and I'm sure they can tell you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrmBig4Evr 152 Posted March 7, 2013 I'm asking my doc about it tomorrow. He gave me a script that said 20mg once in the morning and once at night. That is over the counter though, but it is time released and I read something somewhere that this wasn't good because then you can't crush them?? idk, I'll clarify tomorrow and let you know.
