My doctor said to take it when you needed it. I usually take one or two pepcid ac's and a zantac 150...sometimes just 2 zantac 150s. He made it seem like there is no problem taking it. Feel better. I definitely feel your pain.

Yes, this is what my doc told me. And, you don't have to wait 12 hrs in between doses and you can also take Tums as well.

150 twice a day
yup took it twice a day with my first pregnancy but i had acid reflux prior to pregnancy and took meds....so it kicked in during the second trimester full force where i literally thought i was having a heart attack from the pain....ob/gyn said take it twice daily for the rest of the pregnancy to avoid that happening again so thats what i did ......second pregnancy i took it when i needed it which was right before bed pretty much every night.....daytime i was fine for some reason....i would try the once a day/night and see if that works if not, know that its fine taking it twice a day
