My worst heartburn symptoms were when I was pregnant. I’ve had a couple of episodes where it’s intense pain.
I’m excited to try because it’s not a pill to swallow, I am not good with pills.
I have been dealing with heartburn off and on a lot these past 2 years. It’s one of the worst feelings. I can often tell it’s because of a tomato dish I have eaten. It also sometimes seems to be related to how much water I do or don’t drink as well as if I am dealing with some other illness.
I have suffered from heartburn on and off for years. It really depends on what I eat. I usually eat antacids to get relief but it never lasts very long 🙁
I’d like to try the new Walgreens odt for heart burn. I have found other odt medicine to work very well.
Congrats!! You won the $100 gift card. I just e-mailed you. Please check your e-mail to confirm! Thank you!! -Meg, MSM Team
This is going to sound crazy, but I had heartburn for the first time in my life two nights ago after eating frozen meatless meatballs for a later dinner. I did not sleep well and had pain in my upper abdomen and heart. I thought it was anxiety! It lasted well into the next day, especially the heart pain. I even took a low dose aspirin in case it was a heart attack! Ha! I wondered then if it could be heartburn; at 47, I had never had it. After googling it and reading this description, I am certain that is what it was. I am excited to try this product, should I ever eat meatless meatballs again (!).
I get heartburn at night if I eat a late dinner and then sleep on my bed. I end up sleeping in a semi-reclined position I am excited to try Omeprazole ODT because I can take it without water!
I personally don’t have heartburn issues, but my husband has battled with it for years! His insurance doesn’t cover all of his medication anymore, so we are looking for OTC alternatives. Hopefully this one can do the trick!
I don’t have issues with heartburn but my husband has for years and he is always trying different OTC medications for relief. This medication looks very promising.
This product sounds like an easy way to get relief from heartburn. We will check it out!!
I’d like to try the dissolving formula. I’ve been having more trouble with this recently and it would be nice to try! Thanks!
I’ve been dealing with heartburn for about 8 years (I’m only 30!) and I have yet to find something that really helps so I end up avoiding a ton of foods and drinks. I first noticed it when I started drinking red wine and would have this burning pain in my chest. It was so unbearable that I went to the ER because I thought I was having a heart attack to find out it was HEARTBURN! I quickly gave up drinking red wine. Now I have to not only stay away from red wine, but also tomatoes, coffee/tea (this is the toughest), spicy foods, Powerade and certain fruits. It really stinks sometimes, but it’s much easier to avoid these foods than to deal with the constant pain they cause me. I’ve tried EVERYTHING on the market and even home remedies to help my heartburn, but so far nothing has been super successful. I’ve tried ginger, drinking baking soda with water, licorice, apple cider vinegar, antacids (Tums, Rolaids, Zantac, etc) so I’m SUPER EXCITED to try this Omeprazole ODT at Walgreens because I would love to be able to drink coffee and wine again!!
I’d like to try the new dissolving formula because it would be on less pill for me to swallow.
I only have heartburn if I eat pasta with red sauce too quickly. Red wine is also a culprit. I live that Walgreens has Oemprazole self-dissolving tablets to put in my purse and carry with me at all times! ☺
Heartburn has almost always been a problem for me, at least for the last 18 years. Omeprazole is the first thing I’ve found that works great with no other issues!
Being overweight, heartburn is a constant. I’m excited to try this product. Thanks for introducing us.
I get it on occasion after eating Mexican food. This would be great to keep on hand for a quick remedy
I typically just get heartburn when I’m pregnant, but it is just awful! This sounds like a great remedy for those who have heartburn often. Might be a good thing to keep in the house!
I get heartburn more frequently as I have gotten older and know that spicy foods trigger it too. I will have to check out this new product. Thank you!
I’m looking forward to trying this easy to use Product for heartburn. Yay!
I have been getting more heartburn as I get older, especially after eating acidic foods.
My ten-year-old son has been dealing with heartburn/GERDfor about eight years. Sometimes it is very bad. He takes Omeprazole on a daily basis, but I’m sure he would enjoy this chewable kind more than the pill that he swallows.
I honestly don’t experience heartburn hardly ever, but I do look forward to letting my parents know about this.
I am always looking for cheaper alternatives to the name brand heartburn remedies. Some of the store brands have not worked as well so looking forward to trying the Walgreens brand.
I first experienced heartburn while I was pregnant. It was a little bit funny because I didn’t know what was happening and I said to my husband, “What is happening?? Everything burns!!” And he said, “You have heartburn. Welcome to my life.” LOL.
Thanks for the giveaway. I usually take Zantac
Hubby gets heartburn a lot.
Heartburn is miserable so it is good to see new, over the counter products becoming available.
Off and on someone in our family experiences heartburn. Having this product in our medicine cabinet would be helpful
I have to be careful about eating at least 3 hours before going to bed or I’m miserable.
I suffer on and off from heartburn and am always looking for a good option to relieve it. Tums are currently my best friend in the evening. 😉
I always get heartburn when I eat pizza or chili.
Heartburn sneaks up on my occasionally, and usually a couple of tablets do the trick to help me feel better.
Thankfully I don’t get heartburn.
Oh this sounds wonderful! I love that it stops it before it happens! Growing older…spices have been harder for me and I get heartburn more often. I LOVE spices…and have had to cut them down but I miss them so much. This would be perfect to help…and I could start adding my spices back! Oh the family will be so excited!
Having struggles with severe heartburn during pregnancy and after I know how difficult it is when you need medicine but cannot swallow without choking. This sounds like a fast acting and easy to use treatment that will work for anyone!
I started getting heartburn really bad when I was pregnant with twins, but unfortunately, it just never went away, so it’s something I have to struggle with daily.
I actually forwarded this to my husband because he typically has acid reflux. This is one we haven’t tried! I often get heartburn when I’m pregnant too.
I don’t usually have this problem but the gift card would sure be helpful in other ways. Thanks for offering it!
Oh gosh…red wine, rich food and the holidays….it’s a perfect storm of heartburn. I usually go with tums or another brand but I could definitely try this. Thanks for the heads up.
Interesting post, thanks! I was diagnosed with “silent reflux” a few years ago which is heartburn/reflux that tends to present symptoms more in the throat and even sinus areas, which is weird.
I like to enjoy my food, whether it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner. Heartburn is discomforting. I would love to try this new relief so I can enjoy my plate of food with my family!
I tend to get heartburn when I don’t eat healthy. Its nice to know another option to try.
I had heartburn cause damage to my esophagus
I’ve been suffering in and off for years but lately it’s been kicking my butt especially when I have my morning coffee. I can’t give up coffee so I pray this helps!! Thanks to you and Walgreens!
I would like to try this for my heartburn.
Oh I had horrible heartburn with all my pregnancies and I have had it from time to time since. Glad there is a new option for treatment!
I have had heartburn for most of my life and tried several medications. I was finally able to lose over 100 pounds and now I don’t get it as much. I would love to try this product though since lately It’s been acting up. I love the Walgreens brand and zi am sure it won’t disappoint!
I have had acid reflux for about 2 years now …wake up in the night with it in my throat, choking and it burning…so I’m so excited about this …can’t wait to try…..
Usually it is the spicy foods that cause my heartburn! So I am excited to try Omeprazole ODT and am hoping to get some relief!
I am not a chronic heartburn sufferer but I do occasionally get it when I eat something that disagrees with me. I try to stay away from things that I know will give me heartburn like the skin on a cucumber.
My first real heartburn experience was with the skin on a cucumber I honestly thought I was having a heart attack (I was 34). At that time only Tums were available and that did the trick.
Thank you for all the time and research you put in to helping us!!
When other posters say they literally felt li,e they were dying, I totally know how they feel. I had two episodes on Christmas Eve and last night and I had to cancel plans to do anything because I was just miserable. I eat small portions and stay away from spicy foods, so I still haven’t figured out what is causing it.
My best friend suffers with heartburn, I am going to let her know about this exciting new product. I love shopping at Walgreen’s…so many great products. Thanks for the generous opportunity and for letting us know the heartburn information! Love moneysaving mom! Missing your podcast (but you certainly deserve time off with family)
My best friend suffers with heartburn so I plan to tell her about this new product. I love Walgreens and shop there several times a week. Thanks for this opportunity and letting us know about relief from heartburn!
I normally don’t have this issue but when I do it’s awful so I would love to give this a try
I’ve learned to eat very small meals and other things have helped for the heartburn. Sleeping with pillows to prop up my head also helps. I’m always looking for new things to try that may work for me. Thanks for the giveaway.
I get heart burn around my period. I’m excited to try this because dissolvable pills are so easy when you don’t have water
Unfortunately as I’ve tried to add new & different spices & seasonings to our meals our heartburn has increased. I would be excited to try this! Especially with no need to swallow a pill!
Thankfully, I rarely get heartburn now, but I did both times that I was pregnant and it was definitely not fun!
On occasion when I eat too fast I suffer from heart burn, I look forward to trying this product.
HEARTBURN IS NO FUN.SITTING UP AFTER I EAT CAN HELP. I AM ANXIOUS TO TRY THIS NEW PRODUCT.
I don’t usually have a problem with heartburn except when I’ve eaten two or three heartburn causing foods together. But when I get it, it makes me really feel for those people whom suffer from it on a regular basis.
I started getting heartburn while I was pregnant – good thing I now know what it feels like, otherwise I would worry when it happens now! I’m excited to try the new Walgreens version as it sounds effortless/painless. Thank you for the giveaway!
I have frequent heartburn with a history of Barrett’s Esophagus, a precancerous condition. I think it would be awesome to try a ‘melt-in-your-mouth’ pill.
Ugh. Heartburn. Zantac is what’s currently helping me, but I’d love to try this
I might pick some up, as I’ve had some heartburn recently. I love Walgreen’s generic options to pricier name brands!
My doctor just recommended I try omeprazole again for another health condition. I’d love to try this!
I am game to try new things.
I need to get this for my husband. All the good stuff gives him heartburn:)
Love to try new things, even better when they are at a super low price!!
I have heartburn daily. I have taken omeprazole for a few years. I don’t have trouble swallowing pills, but a dissolvable pill would be interesting to try.
I personally don’t typically have an issue with heartburn but my husband does. It seems like everytime we go somewhere and eat he has an issue with heartburn. This would be great for him to try.
I have frequent heartburn and like to try new things.
Ugh…heartburn. I LOVE butter and coffee, but they give me heartburn. I’m interested in trying that otc medicine … so I can eat more butter. ?
No water! Yes please!
No shallowing! Yes please!
Fortunately heartburn isn’t much of a problem for me if I’m prudent with my diet.
I am always excited to try new things that make life better!
My heartburn has been more and more frequent recently and am looking forward to trying this Omeprazole OTC to see if it helps.
Heartburn is an almost daily issue for my husband. It would be wonderful for him to have a new solution to try.
I get terrible heartburn all the time
I’ve suffered from heartburn and gone through several medications. It would be interested to find out if this generic would work the same as the name brands.
I would like to try the disintegrating tablets, because it is hard for me to swallow pills.
My husband suffers terribly from heartburn. This would be worth trying.
I tend to get heartburn quite often. Especially if I eat to late in the evening.
So thankful that I’ve only had to deal with it while pregnant.
My husband suffers from heartburn frequently. It will be great to have a go to product that is offered over the counter.
I’d like to try this product too.
We tried this product for my son and found that another med worked better. Thanks for the chance to win
I have heartburn from so many different foods I just can’t give up all of them. I cut out greasy foods and coffee. Even healthy foods like fruits give me heartburn . A product you can use on the run without water sounds wonderful. .
Since I was 21, I have had heartburn. It never really mattered what I had eaten, it would usually flare up and cause me to get something immediately to help with the indigestion. Now that I am in my 70s, I would to try this to see how it works for me.
Suzan
My daughter has heartburn and has used these frequently. Works great!
Definitely going to get some. Just took one of the capsule ones and waiting for it to work.
I have HORRIBLE heartburn from time to time. It is very hard to get it under control. My doctor had suggested some different ideas, but so far full fat milk has been helpful. But I would just love it to simply stop!
I occasionally get very bad heartburn after eating tomato sauce. This sounds like a great product to have on hand. I love the fact that I won’t have to swallow a pill, and that it has a strawberry flavor 🙂
I had horrible heart burn during my pregnancies. My doctor told me to try TUMS, which worked OK, except for the green ones. Green TUMS made my heartburn worse. Dear Hubby and I would stand in the store analyzing each bottle trying to find the one with the least number of green. (And by the end of my second pregnancy we had several bottles of TUM with just green pills in them!)
Thanks for hosting a giveaway.

My stomach hurts so much & Prilosec helps ?
Walgreens $100 would purchase me oh so much Omeprazole!!!!
I get heartburn any time I take ibuprofen for my migraines but it is a necessary evil. This would be nice to try for it!
My husband suffers with lots of heartburn.
My husband is prescribed to take this daily. The valve that opens and closes to the stomach is always open and with out this medicine it pumps too acid up is esophagus. It’s really quite painful and the smell is quite gross at times. I know TMI but this is real life stuff
I take Nexium daily and this looks like a good alternative. Also like that is strawberry flavored.
It’s been awhile since I’ve had it, but good to know there are products out there!
I am anxious to try this as I have difficulty swallowing pills.
Thanks for the gift card giveaway! For many years my hubby took prescription heartburn medication, but then he tried apple cider vinegar capsules, (twice a day with meals) and has been off of all the heartburn meds for several years, now!
Like soooo many other commenters, my heartburn started during pregnancy. It was so bad that my doctor prescribed medicine for it. And although I rarely had heartburn before being pregnant, it has stayed with me even now, more than 2 1/2 years later! I will definitely try this.
Now if only they’d make something with immediate relief to take on an as-needed basis!
I had heartburn when I was pregnant. As I get older I have it every now and then.
I have had heartburn most of my adult life. Its nice that Walgreens has Omeprazole Orally Disintegrating Tablets for people like myself who have trouble swallowing pills.
Thanks for chance to win.
Hi Crystal! My husband has suffered from heartburn ever since I’ve known him (18 wonderful years, and I hope those two don’t have any connection). He has tried anything and everything to keep his heartburn under control. The only thing that he has found that works is Prilisec OTC. Anytime a new heartburn medicine comes out he will of course be curious to try it, but it always falls short and he goes back to Prilosec. We even stock up on the stuff at Costco. It would be interesting to see how this new Omeprezole at Walgreens stacks up compared to Prilisec OTC. Thanks for this info Crystal!
I had horrible heartburn during pregnancy!
I would love to try this
I have a relative who has tried different things for heartburn, and I google around to see if I can help her. This Omeprazole ODT is something I’m excited to tell her about! And it is something pleasant to take – strawberry! Wow!
I use Omeprazole prescription when needed but I bet this works much much quicker because you don’t have to wait for the capsule to dissolve! This sound WONDERFUL FOR WHEN ON THE GO!
I hate having heartburn I cannot wait to try this. The burning feeling is awful.
My husband suffers from acid reflux and a change in meds would be worth a try.
I wonder if it’s faster acting this way. Would definitely want to try it!!!
I’m excited to try Omeprazole ODT because I hate having heartburn. Everyone in my family has it!
Heartburn and GERD always but worsens with late night eating and pregnancy. Sounds interesting to try.
I’m excited to try something that might actually work AND is cheaper!!
My husband and son suffer from heartburn.
Fortunately heartburn is only an occasional issue here, but this sounds like a gentle way to allow the medicine to provide relief. Would love to try it!
I just had heartburn the other day and it really impacted my ability to enjoy a fun gathering with family. I would love to try something new.
Thank you for having contest.My son has bad heartburn- I am sure the medicine would help him and he would be grateful to try.
I would like to try this because it looks easy to take. It says dissolves without water, so you could carry it in your purse to have handy anywhere.
I excited about trying out this new medication for heartburn. I sounds like it would be quick relief.
It will be so convenient to have relief available without having to swallow a pill!!
I’m pregnant right now and anything to help with heartburn is worth checking out!
I have dealt with horrible heartburn for years. I’d love to try this to see if it can help alleviate my symptoms. Thanks for the info, and the chance to win!
I first got heartburn while pregnant and went to the doctor for it. I though I was having a heart attack.
I normally suffer from heartburn when I eat my favorite spicy foods. Sometimes I’m able to bear through it, but it can get almost unbearable. I’ve stayed away from OTC meds because they are hit or miss and only work some of the time and they can get pricey. Hearing that Walgreens offers a product comparable to some of the major brands excites me and what’s even better is the savings and the strawberry flavor!
I need to keep something on hand for when my heartburn flares up.
I’m excited to try this for our dogs, and our rescue’s adoptable dogs. Bloat can be avoided by keeping heartburn and acid build up at Bay.
I think I’ve outgrown this problem!
I look forward to try this new product for my reoccurring acid reflux. I’ve heard great things and just bought some! Thanks for the great savings!
I suffer from heartburn daily. I have to take heartburn medication because I am on the cusp of having Barrets Esophagus. I couldn’t imagine a day without heartburn medication. I would love to try this new form of medication.
Heartburn…. it’s the only memory of my last pregnancy unfortunately. Where were these dissolvable beauties when I needed them.
I had heartburn while I was pregnant, and it was the worst. We are going to try for another one soon, so this sounds great!
I would love to try the dissolving tab instead of the one I must drink water with for my acid reflux.
I have had heartburn since I was 18 yrs of age. When I was 21, my primary care doctor heard my need for help and put me on some OTC medicines. That didn’t work, nor did prescription drugs. I eventually had surgery. Even at 71 yrs of age, I have severe heartburn problems, with no resolve. I would sincerely like to try this. This may just be my answer to all these years of discomfort and losing weight because I have to be so careful in what I eat.
I don’t often have heartburn, but when I do … I want relief fast. This sounds like a good product to try.
Have been having heartburn more and more frequently for some reason… Would LOVE to give this a try!
I had esophageal reflux when pregnant with both my kids. Unfortunately it continued after they were born and I definitely avoid certain foods now :\ Maybe this will help?? It would be worth it to eat ice cream again!
my dad has always had problems with heartburn, would love him to try this
Hello,
I am a 71 yr young lady. When I was 19 yrs of age, I was told that I had ulcers. I was treated for the ulcers by taking Maalox 3 times daily for several months and not having spicy food on the menu. After 3 months, of a very bland died, another ulcer developed. I eventually had a vagotomy, which should of taken care of the ulcer situation, but did not. Even at this age, I get horrible heartburn at times, even when I have a very mild diet. I would sincerely like to try Omeprazole ODT to see if this would be the answer to my situation.
Thank you for this opportunity(sorry a
I need to try this! Sounds like this can actually provide relief for a couple months after taking regularly for 14 days. I’m ready to try just about anything.
I frequently have heartburn and would love to give this product a try. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have heartburn every night when I lay down to sleep. I can tell if I miss a dose. They are lifesavers!
I actually have never had heartburn but my hubby gets it occasionally so I would try it for him.
I deal with acid reflux often. It gets so bad that I have had frequent sinus infections. Who knew it was all related”
I get heartburn when I eat too late at night, which is semi-frequent, as we are a busy family. I also suffer from it when I eat some spicy food. Ahhhh
I’m excited to get these for my husband to try. He’ll be so miserable some nights from heartburn.
I have a huge problem with reflux and have Barrett’s esophagus since have to take medicine everyday for it taking The generic Prevacid now.
I don’t get heartburn often and I don’t know what causes it when I do get it. It’s usually in the evening. I usually take an antacid, but that really doesn’t help and I end up just having to suffer until it goes away on its own.
Thankfully most of my heartburn occurred during pregnancy. I’ve experienced it on other rare occasions, but don’t regularly wrestle with it.
My heart burn was horrible when I was pregnant.
I would love to have this on hand for when that pesky heartburn pops up. Thank you!
I have frequent issues with heartburn and am excited about this new option to try.
I’d love to try it. I have had heartburn for 6 months.
I’ve never had heartburn.
I never had heartburn before I was pregnant with my youngest-that was the first time I dealt with it. Now I’m getting older and notice I have it if we eat greasy foods late, this would be great to try in those cases!
MY son is on 2 anti depressants due to an accident. He has had some heartburn due to these. The opportunity to try something that would work quicker would be a great benefit
Am on prescription for acid reflux, when it does get bad, its awful, but fortunately mostly under control now. Would Love a gift card!!
I had terrible heartburn during all 4 of my pregnancies.
I hate heartburn, this looks great
My heartburn was terrible when pregnant. Now it’s only when I eat spicy foods. Would love to try this!
