Jan 11, 2005: On December 3, 2003, I posted a message in my web journal about the Asian Blush, which quickly resulted in over 100 very-informative comments. This forum is intended to be an information source for those of us looking for information about why we turn red when we drink alcohol.

Re: H2 Blockers (Tagamet, Pepcid, Zantac, Axid) (1,275 replies, posted in Focused Discussion)

I was wondering about long term effects of using H-2 blockers(pepcid, ect)? What happens when you stop taking them after prolonged use? Does your body over-compensate the acid production? I wouldn't want to get some side-effects since I dont have any problems with acid-reflux, heartburn or ulcers. I'm half asian and I hate "the flush", but I dont want to mess up the balance in my stomach in the long run. Anyone have any experience with this? thanks :)

ps- thanks for this site!
