I took 20mg of Omekproazole (Prylosec) for a
long time, maybe twenty years (
how long has it been on the market?). I started getting sore gums, and my voice started becoming hoarse and other symptoms, and it was determined I had a bigtime GERD issue, much more pronounced than I earlier experienced. Tests confirmed my vocal cords were burned, my gums were affected like yours and I started losing enamel from my teeth.
