After I was out of the first trimester, i was given a script for
Pepcid. I was allowed to take OTC zantac,
pepcid, etc... but it was cheaper to get a prescription. My daughter did not have any problems at all with reflux.
I am now pregnant with #2. I was surprised that the first trimester wasn't too bad with the heart burn. It came back full force in the second trimester, and I am on pepcid again.
My OB is very cautious with meds, and my DH is a pharmacist.
