Suggest Remedy For Heartburn
I am experiencing heartburn for over two weeks. I am on blood pressure preventive medicene i.e. Advent 8. mg since 2005 and take daily dose of Loprin - 150 mg, Advent 8.mg and Lowplat 75 mg.I regularly take Risek 20 mg for heartburn but now it is not helping. I mat add that until two months ago; as prescribed by my heart specialist I was taking 75mg dose with no problem. Please advise me what should I do.

Dear Sir
Thanks for your query.
If you were well settled on risek 20 and suddenly the things have worsened, you need to consult your gastroenteorlogist. Meanwhile you should consult your cardiologist too as with LOWPLAT, mostly 75 mg of loprin is recommended except for patients with ACS. Hence, he may be able to reduce the dose.
Try not to drink water or fluids with meals. Do not go to bed immediately after meals.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
