Generic Prilosec

[myles <myles77@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We would want to try Prilosec but can't seem to find it locally......we are
in the Philippines.......

The reason i was asking for the generic name was because Prilosec to you
might be marketed in Manila under a different label. Or perhaps i should be
asking hwat the major component of Prilosec is?

You are all so lucky to have health insurance. The kind of health insurance
you have is not as expansive as even the private health insurance coverage
we have here.......
