Thanks for this! My doctor told me to make sure to take my PPI in the morning when I wake up and right before bed. Reading this shed's new light on everything. You are NOT supposed to take PPI's at bedtime... good to know. Maybe I need to print this out and leave it on his desk!?

It was for me, too...it's definitely something that anyone taking PPIs should read.
