Help Dexilant instead of tegamet when ready to use SN?

[SpecialK]

Hello,

I got Tegamet 6x and also Dexilant 30x

Should I take Dexilant as antacid instead of Tegamet, 30min before ingesting the SN?

My plan would be ;
-1 hour before : 300mg of Quietiapine pills and 750mg of Advil extra strength pills.
-30 minute before : 2 Dexilant pills.
-SN.

Would that work correctly?

Dexilant is a PPI so not advised. Tagamet is a H2 Blocker which is alright if it's all you have. A simple antacid would be even better.

What would you recommend as antacid? I thought Dexilant would do the job. :(

So I could only take tegamet and it would be fine? How much do I take and how much time before I drink the SN?

Personally, I'm undecided between taking Tagamet throughout that whole week before CTBing in the weekend and taking chewable magnesium tablets right beforehand. The first option might be overkill (especially since the interaction with dopamine blockers is increased drowsiness) but I really don't want to vomit. I'll happily trade slower SN absorption (as long as it ultimately kills me) with not vomiting. I know there's always a risk, but I'd like to reduce it. Chewable magnesium was hit-and-miss with affecting my heartburn anyway.

A double recommended dose of Tagamet 30-45mins pre SN.

The best thing to do is exactly what you're doing. Lots and lots of research, and then making an informed decision yourself about your regime details ❤
