I used to have acid reflux really bad, I took Prevacid and I also chewed the softchews when it was really bad. I learned to avoid certain foods that made it worse, anything spicy or especially acidy. Talk to your doctor, acid reflux going untreated can burn holes into the lining of your esophagus, not a good thing! Best of luck!
try pepcid
my mother had this and she was prescriped tablets for it from a Dr
dont eat after 7pm or a couple hours before lying down for bed and try keeping your head of bed elevated.
drink milk for instant releif not sure how to get rid of it entirely I have the same problem.
Have you tried heartburn medicine? I had an acid problem when I was a junior in college, and I was taking Prilosec OTC twice a day, once with breakfast and once with dinner, and while it was expensive, it took care of the problem. I was on it for a year and a half before I decided to stop taking it, and the acid never came back. But mine was due to stress anyway.
And if you've already tried that, I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Acid reflux is awful, I'm sorry :(
elevate the head of your bed - it really helps..........and actually water can cause reflux - we use water to MAKE our patients reflux when doing an upper GI exam...........stay away from tea & water (that's the ONLY thing that helps me)
same as other said plus you can get a fundal wrap if it really annoys you. they basically wrap your stomach around your esophagus to prevent the reflux from coming up, it has had great success
If you tried dr prescribed Prilosec & it didn't work then you have some serious issues going on & need a new dr!

Based on my friend's experience, he was advised to avoid fruits and meat for awhile and drink herbal tea.
Old home remedy Apple Cider Vinegar one teaspoon in the morning every morning for two weeks. Try this and see if it might help.
first of all one has to mention that reflux is due to both motility problem and xxx gastric secretion both should be treated to gether her about motility one should learn first how to breath right to make the esophageal muscle stronger just take a breath and keep it inside for about10 second try every Day for 10 minute there is drug also useful but it is Rx only called motilium for that about gastric secretion the best drug used are 2 together rantindine 75mg before sleep it is OTC and pantoprazole 40mg 30 minute before breakfast once daily this relief both acid reflux and nocturnal heart burn hope this could help
