Been on prilosec for over a decade.

It seems to cause me "rebound" issues if I stop or forget more than a day. Never in my life did I have heartburn until I forgot a few pills after years on the stuff for other reasons (esophageal strictures). Holy wah heartburn sucks!

There is supposedly a vitamin deficiency issue - but I forgot which one. Could be the memory vitamin.

All in all, I'm very happy with the purple pill. Nexium was better w.r.t. rebound but my HMO decided I didn't need the expensive pill (yay!) and could get by with OTC.
