Reglan (metoclopramide) is made by Wyeth under that brand name however it is available as a generic and under several other names. Reglan is very expensive compared to generic metoclopramide, I recommend the generic!
They are both in the same class of drug, called Proton Pump Inhibitors. They both work in pretty much the same way. Differences, one is purple, the other is pink/black (30mg). Prilosec is available in generic (omeprazole) and over-the-counter, where Prevacid still has its patent and is only available as a prescription. Insurance will probably pay for the Prevacid. Many insurance companies won’t pay for anything that is over-the-counter.
hey there, i am a pharma rep. I havent sold that particular drug but it is a good one. I have taken it before. It is great for ulcers and bad acid reflux or heart burn. it is a strong drug, but little to no serious side effects that you should worry about. talk to your doctor if you are worried. oh, and here in canada it is the most expensive drug in its class. There are just effective…. and cheeper drugs avail.hope that helps
