Prevacid^®24HR works differently from other over-the-counter heartburn treatments.

Prevacid^®24HR is part of a newer class of acid-reducer medicines called Proton Pump Inhibitors (also known as PPIs). It prevents acid that causes heartburn pain for a full 24 hours with one pill a day. It works by stopping the release of most acid into the stomach. As with all over-the-counter PPIs, although some people get complete relief of symptoms within 24 hours, it may take 1-4 days for full effect.
