Kirkland Signature Omeprazole Delayed Release, Acid Reducer Tablets 20 mg, 42 Count

As mentioned these are a nice thickness if you need more durable nitrile gloves. In my job I can re-use gloves and these are a money saver. The only thing is they run a bit big. I have a "Large" hand and these fit loosely. Altho I prefer that since I'm re-using them and my hands tend to cramp up if gloves are too tight. I'm not sure going down a size would work as then I think they might be too tight. If you like tight gloves though, I'd consider going down one size or at least research what others say on the sizing as well. All in all a very high quality glove worth every penny.

Price is competitive. Just wish it came in a bottle instead of having to push out pills from a sheet of pills.

I used to always buy Prilosec OTC: about a year ago I had gone over to my folks place for dinner one evening, Chicken Enchiladas if i remember correctly. If your reading this review you probably already know what mexican food can do to one who suffers from acid reflux or heartburn. Of course I didn't take my "Anti-Acid" that day and didn't carry any on me, so thankfully (as horrible as this sounds) my father also suffers from acid reflux. I asked if he had any prilosec, He went to bathroom and brought back this plain white box that read OMEPRAZOLE with the KIRKLAND BRAND logo on it. I figured I was going to have to take a whole handful of these off brand prilosec imposters but Boy o' Boy did I stand corrected. This stuff works like a charm, Just as good as Prilosec and much much cheaper. This is now my go-to acid-reducer. I have since trusted KIRKLAND brand products and have yet to be disappointed.

I think it works okay, although doesn't seem to work as well as my prescription Omeprazole from the doctor. I take 40 mg prescription, so I have to take two of these. I don't know if my stomach is just getting worse, or these generic omeprazole aren't very effective.

Omeprazole is the generic version of Prilosec, made by AstraZeneca. The molecule is almost identical to that of Nexium, a newer drug marketed by the company. Nexium works no better than Prilosec, or for that matter, generic omeprazol. (I was a science writer for drug companies for over 30 years and was familiar with the scrambling that occurs when a cash cow is about to die. In its heyday Prilosec brought in over $1 billion in profits to AstraZeneca.)A number of reliable websites describe the drama that took place in the early 2000s. According to one article:"Los Angeles October, 18, 2004 -- Consumers of the heartburn medication Nexium® today filed a lawsuit against the drug's distributor, AstraZeneca (NYSE: AZN). The suit alleges that the pharmaceutical company sought to preserve their market share and profits as the patent on their blockbuster drug, Prilosec®, was set to expire, by initiating a massive and misleading advertising and promotional campaign to deceive consumers into purchasing Nexium, a nearly identical new drug."When a company has a blockbuster drug going off patent, its lawyers, marketing staff and researchers get to work. First the legal department looks for ways to delay the introduction of the generic product, in this case omeprazole. This strategy worked for AstraZeneca for 2-3 years. Then, their pharmacologists attempt to alter the drug molecule just enough to justify a new patent. AstraZeneca came up with "esomeprazole," the generic name for their new drug Nexium.When Prilosec molecule had been tweaked and transformed to Nexium, R&D ran clinical trials to prove that Nexium had greater efficacy. They conducted four double-blind studies comparing the two drugs. The results of two trials showed no difference in efficacy. The other two showed a slight difference. So AstraZeneca hid the two unfavorable studies in a drawer and exploited the other two. Their drug reps visited doctors all over the country to persuade them of Nexium's superiority. (Most doctors listen to reps. It's less time-consuming than doing their own research.)The result was that thousands of doctors began to prescribe Nexium at a cost of about $5 per pill, instead of Prilosec, now only 60 cents per pill (40 cents for generic omeprazole).If Nexium is prescribed for you, tell your doctor you prefer omeprazole. If necessary, print one of the many website reports describing the duplicity of AstraZeneca.

Greet price and dependability.

I took these pills to counteract heartburn and acid reflux. They work great. After three months I started cutting the pill in half having heard they can cause other health problems. Even at a half dose each day I have no more heartburn or acid reflux. What a relief! If I skip a day or two the heartburn is back. If you purchase a different brand that comes in a capsule form you won’t be able to try reducing your dosage by using a pill cutter.

The generic that has consistantly worked for me with no issue so far.
