I could go on and on about how adorable they are, but I've always been one for visuals. Here is a sample of our beginning of the year David project (as in David Shannon's. David Goes to School picture book). Enjoy.
PPIâs are drugs which reduce gastric acid production in the stomach. These are commonly prescribed for GERD and for gastric ulcers. According to Medicine-net.com this is how they work: proton pump inhibitors reduce the production of acid by blocking the enzyme in the wall of the stomach that produces acid.
It's part of a class of medications known as proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) and is marketed under the brand name Protonix. GERD is a condition in which the backward flow of acid from the stomach causes heartburn and sometimes injury of the esophagus.
