Sister 1 and Sister 2 have both had an evolving relationship with the product Prelief. We have read the package directions which suggest 2 tablets taken before an acidic meal. It also suggests that more can be taken if needed. Sister 1 and Sister 2 both use more. Sister 1 typically uses 3 Prelief tablets. Sister 2 typically uses 2 at the beginning of a moderately worrisome meal, but adds 2 more in the middle of a more acidic food, such as a meal that has tomato as an ingredient or with a reduced acid coffee.
Here is the Prelief advice Sister 2 got from her urogynecologist Dr. Allan Klapper at New York Downtown Hospital. He suggested taking Prelief daily with the same meal every day. For example, take Prelief with dinner every evening. He also suggested continuing to take additional Prelief with other meals that might be too acidic. His suggestion to take Prelief on a daily basis at the same time every day is quite different from the packaging instructions, so we thought it was worth mentioning. It seems like Prelief is very helpful.
