I'm thinking if doing that , I was prescribed it for 8 weeks for mild reflux which was basically an irritating cough , throat clearing all the time and a bit of discomfort just where your ribs meet in the middle . I finish the course in about 10 days . Not sure if the stomach upset is a coincidence or something to do with the Lansoprazole .
im hoping to keep,it all at bay with Appleccider vinegar taken regularly before ire meals

I think the drug you are on is too strong and irritant for a small amount of reflux. Watch with vinegar which is acidic and could make hearburn worse. If you upset stomach clears up after coming off your medication, then this a sign you are intolerant to it, You will be sure then.
it is ok to discontinue medication before the course finishes if it is making you unwell. I was given a six week course of Mebeverine for IBS. It disagreed with me after taking the first tablet so I threw them out within 4 days. I only took a few tablets from the first slide.
