How long does it take for these tablets to work?

I take it daily. Usually 24 hours or so before results . Up to 4 days for full effect.. One time I took it only a few hours before I felt relief but I got off and started again and it took longer.. Its a ok med to take and you should take it 30 min before any meal!! That would b more effective..

So it does not have to be taken daily? It would be nice to limit the pills I take every day. I think a lot of gas, pain, heartburn and other unpleasant symptoms are the result of taking the pills and anxiety, for sure the stomach acid...
