1. Tagamet (generic name: Cimetidine) is a low-cost, over-the-counter medication that consumers can buy without a prescription. It is used to treat persistent heartburn and stomach ulcers. Tagamet works by decreasing the secretions of stomach acids. When too much stomach acid is produced, some can "leak" out in a retrograde fashion and move into the esophagus, where it can burn the lining of the esophagus and cause the sensation of heartburn. Tagamet is also used to treat stomach and esophageal ulcers.
   
   Tagamet is slightly less potent as its counterpart, Zantac, another anti-acid medication in the same class as Tagamet. Tagamet is not as potent as Prilosec or Prevacid, both very srong stomach acid inhibitors. For those with occasional bothersome mild heartburn, Tagamet is a good place to start in terms of treatment. It is relatively cheap, and it is effective in controlling mild cases of heartburn. However, in more persistant and serious cases, one may consider taking the more potent (and more costly) Prilosec or Prevacid. The latter two medications generally work in cases where Zantac and Tagamet will not.
   
   Tagamet is taken about 30 minutes to an hour before eating foods that commonly cause heartburn. The lead time is essential to decreasing stomach acid output before ingesting food. The usual dose is 400 mg 2-4 times a day. Read the label insert to learn what medications Tagamet can potentially interact with.
   
   Tagamet is a good place to start treatment of heartburn. If it does not do the job for you, consider moving on to Prilosec and/or Prevacid.
