Prilosec over-the-counter: Good news for you, or bad?
For many people, especially those without insurance, having Prilosec available without a prescription is good news. But for others, it isn't. One reason is that they may have to pay more more for the over-the-counter version of Prilosec than they paid in co-pay for the prescription version. Added to that, some insurance companies may no longer pay for the prescription Prilosec, or any of it's counterparts, such as Nexium or Prevacid.

How does Prilosec being available over the counter affect you? Let us know by taking the poll below.
