What Is Breakthrough Heartburn?

What Is Breakthrough Heartburn?

This is of special interest for heartburn sufferers who are taking an acid-reducing medication to help prevent their heartburn.


The term “breakthrough heartburn” refers to heartburn symptoms that break through the control of preventative treatments like Prilosec® or Nexium®.

If you are taking a preventative heartburn medication, but are still suffering from occasional heartburn, ask your doctor about taking Mylanta antacids to relieve your heartburn symptoms, even the kind that breaks through.

Prilosec® and Nexium® are registered trademarks of AstraZeneca AB.
