The foods you eat may not cause acid reflux disease. But they can still make it feel worse. Most people with acid reflux disease have certain trigger foods that can make their condition act up. The question is, what are yours?

Foods that might trigger acid reflux.

Everyone's triggers are different. But some common trigger foods include:

• Citrus products • Alcoholic beverages • Spicy foods • Tomato products • Fatty foods

• Chocolate • Coffee • Heavily seasoned foods • Fried foods • Peppermint

One way to help identify your own triggers is to keep a simple journal of what you eat—and how you feel afterwards.

Important Product and Safety Information

Indications

PROTONIX is a prescription drug that is used to treat and maintain healing of erosive acid reflux disease, also known as erosive GERD (breaks in the lining of the esophagus), and relieve associated symptoms that may include frequent and persistent heartburn and stomach acid backup. Most patients heal within 8 weeks of treatment. Doctors may prescribe PROTONIX beyond 8 weeks to maintain healing or to prevent a recurrence of your symptoms. Controlled studies did not extend beyond 12 months.

Important Safety Information

In clinical trials, the most frequently reported side effects with PROTONIX Delayed-Release Tablets were headache, diarrhea, and gas. Relief of your symptoms while on PROTONIX does not exclude the possibility that serious stomach conditions are present. Patients who are allergic to any ingredient of PROTONIX should not take it.
