Do "AcipHex" commercials make anyone else go, "Huh?".
TV: "...prescription AcipHex..."

Me: "Huh? What about ass effects?"

2. Every Time
I don't even see that much tv but they play lots of commercials for medicines and insurance on TVLand so I see this one almost every day.. the protein pump inhabiter, the kid waiting patiently for his hamburger or whatever, something about your esophagus & making your ph less acidic :*

And he is always saying "ass effects"

4. Unfortunate choice of name.
However... it is an excellent medicine, IMO. Got some samples from my dr. It's supposed to be very expensive, though. I'll find out tomorrow if my insurance will cover it. If not, I'll beg for more samples, I guess.

5. Exactly so.
It's a sad commentary that that name made it from
idea phase to printed packaging. Makes me question
the intelligence of the entire company.
