Suggest Remedies For Acid Reflux
I have suffered from acid reflux for years. After trying out the usual medications incl. Aciphex, now the Gastroenterologist has put me on Restora Rx marketed by US Pharmaceutical Corp. Still I continue to suffer from gas and also have to clear my throat all the time. By the way, I was recently diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and have been using a CPAP machine (by ResMed) for the past month and a half. Is there anything else I need to do to reduce untimely gas emission and acid reflux? I am 80 years old. ---Sunandan Kulkarni

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the case of acid reflux disease then I would suggest "Tab Omeprazole 40 mg with Domperidone 20 mg once in day, for six week and it has to be taken at evening time, try to void the heavy meal, smoking, alcohol, prior to bed, try to stay away from the stress, else it is nothing to worry, if possible try some aerobic exercise hope this information helps.
