    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Time-to-onset of Heartburn Relief
    Time-to-onset of heartburn relief was defined as earliest time following start of treatment that participant experienced a reduction of at least one grade from baseline in the severity of heartburn. Severity of heartburn was evaluated by the participant using the 4-point Likert Scale, which rated heartburn severity as follows: Absent (0): Heartburn is not present. Mild (1): Heartburn did not last long or was easily tolerated. Moderate (2): Heartburn caused discomfort and interrupted usual activities. Severe (3): Heartburn caused great interference with usual activities and may have been incapacitating.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Percentage of Participants Experiencing Onset and Demonstrating Duration of Heartburn Relief Over Time
    Onset of heartburn relief was defined as a reduction of at least one grade from baseline in the severity of heartburn following start of treatment. Severity of heartburn was evaluated by the participant using the 4-point Likert Scale, which rated heartburn severity as follows: Absent (0): Heartburn is not present. Mild (1): Heartburn did not last long or was easily tolerated. Moderate (2): Heartburn caused discomfort and interrupted usual activities. Severe (3): Heartburn caused great interference with usual activities and may have been incapacitating.
    Number of Participants Preferring Each Treatment for Heartburn Control: Final Subjective Questionnaire
    Participants completed a Final Subjective Questionnaire for Treatment Preference. Question 1 asked participants to compare the 2 treatments for Heartburn Control.
    Number of Participants Preferring Each Treatment for Heartburn Relief: Final Subjective Questionnaire
    Participants completed a Final Subjective Questionnaire for Treatment Preference. Question 2 asked participants to compare the 2 treatments for Heartburn Relief.
    Number of Participants Preferring Each Treatment Overall: Final Subjective Questionnaire
    Participants completed a Final Subjective Questionnaire for Treatment Preference. Question 3 asked participants to compare the 2 treatments for their overall preference.
    Percentage of Participants Affected By Heartburn Symptoms: End of Treatment Quality of Life Questionnaire
    End of Treatment Quality of Life was based on a questionnaire regarding quality-of-life issues associated with heartburn, completed by participants at the end of treatment period 1 and the end of treatment period 2.
