Prilosec OTC is different from other over-the-counter heartburn medication. The lining of your stomach produces acid through millions of tiny acid pumps. When you eat, these pumps switch on to produce the acid that breaks down food. Prilosec OTC works by directly blocking many active pumps. Your stomach still produces enough acid to digest the food you eat. But by reducing the acid, Prilosec OTC lessens the chance that you will suffer from frequent heartburn. Prilosec OTC directly shuts down many active pumps and each daily dose works up to 24 hours. Use as directed as part of a 14-day course of therapy.
