How much Prilosec should I take?
Prilosec Rx programs may vary in dose strength and frequency depending on the type and severity of condition. Such prescriptions often involve 40 or 60 mg tablets for periods of four to eight weeks, or longer, as prescribed by your doctor. Prilosec OTC is administered in 20 mg tablets that should be taken once a day, for a period of 14 days. If conditions persist, a doctor should be consulted.
