Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting the Ayurveda section of [A]YUSH and after reviewing your health query, I'm of the following opinion:

1. since Pan 20 [pantoprazole] is a PPI [proton pump inhibitor] which permanently inhibits acid production thus could be the reason for constant acidity problem [as the acid is inhibited thus whenever taking meals there is nothing inside the stomach to digest it thus resulting in the same]

2. As you have taken the opinion of Gastroenterologist who has discovered small ulcers but the problem keeps on surfacing time and again: make sure to exclude H.Pylori infection through biopsy.

3. dietary Regimen: [since in Ayurveda we hold that all the disease arises from the stomach thus it is the digestive system that has to be corrected.

- Take: old brown rice,bitter gourd,white gourd melon,green vegetables,cold water, pipalli, harad,garlic,honey,amla,rice water gruel,barley water,milk,Shatavari.

- Avoid newly harvested rice, chick pea flour, black gram, horse gram, potato, brinjal, saindhav namak, kanji, spicy food, tea/coffee, alcohol, junk food, daytime sleeping, tomato, white sesame seed, curd, painkillers [NSAID's],

4. HOME REMEDIES [of your choice]

. Drink 4 spoons of Aegle marmelos leaves juice for 14 days.
. try to suck a piece of clove for immediate relief.
. fresh mint juice.
. banana, cucumber, water melon are natural antacids.
. a glass of warm water [early morning]
. coconut water [3-4 times a day]
. suck 10 gm jaggery every day [after meals] if there is constant acidity.
. Mix
3 pinch dry ginger powder
3 pinch amla powder
3 pinch sugar and eat this mixture for 1 month

5. LIFESTYLE

. Avoid forward bending or Immediately lying down after eating, instead go for head high position at night.
. loose excess weight.
. maintain good posture.
. do not eat one large meal at one time, instead take smaller, more frequent meals during the day.

6. If interested in Ayurveda management, kindly let me know since I do prepare result oriented Ayurveda medicine for correcting the Agni [Metabolism] and help to rectify the root cause.

The medicine will be ;
- liquid medicine: promoting the healthy functioning of the liver, promoting secretion of liver enzymes that improve metabolism.

- medicine in capsule form: to improve metabolism, eliminate toxins, and improving digestive and excretory system performance.

- medicine in powder form: to replace/substitute Pan 20.

** do check with your CBC [complete blood count], Thyroid function test, vitamin B12 test, and Biopsy for H.Pylori infection.

Do revert back with your clarifications.

Some of the things I am already eating/drinking what you have mentioned. I will try Barley Water and the Mix you suggested. But you said don't take curd? which contradict with many doctors I have consulted. I take curd/Chaas everyday as they have suggested.

Also I will be interested in your powder medicine which replaces Pan 20. How to order it?

1. Curd is mentioned since it is individual based, i.e. some have compliance while other have complaints after consuming the same, also term curd is mentioned since sweet curd is heavy in nature thus creates problem in people with respiratory/ sinus problem, sour curd does causes heart burn in some individuals , and curd not formed properly causes acidity, so it is for the person concerned to verify which curd he/she is opting, also I advice diet regime according to the season and because presently it is XXXXXXX ritucharya (summer season) Mid May to Mid July and thus food with Amla (sour) taste and Ushna (warm) food’s should be avoided, thus curd is not advised.

PS. I will provide with the diet chart according to season which you can incorporate in your daily routine.

2. If interested in powder (churna) form I can courier you the medicine, if keen I can share my bank details, and price of the medicine and you can share you Address along with pin code and XXXXXXX number.

Could you please advise the price of Capsule Medicine, since Powder medicine taste is not good generally. Also while sending medicine, I require prescription on your letter head duly signed by you.

Also 2 months back I have done my preventive XXXXXXX checkup. The report is ok except Vitamin D is marginally low so already taking Vitamin D Supplement.

Thanks for reverting back.

1. Price of medicine in capsule form is 720/- for 60 capsules (1 month) + courier charges extra)

2. powder medicine is to be taken. either with honey/ghee/ buttermilk, so chances of incompatibility are very low.

3. I always courier medicine along with my prescription which is duly signed and bear my registration number also, since it is mandatory when sending through courier, need not to worry.

4. If you ask for combine capsule plus powder medicine it will cost you 1320/- instead of 1540/- (courier charges extra)

In nut shell:

Single medicine:
- medicine in powder form: 820/-
- medicine in capsule form: 720/-

Combined: 1540/- but will get @ discount price of 1320/-.

PS. In both cases courier charges will be extra, do let me know with which you are more comfortable.

1. Acidity is not a disease but because of unhealthy eating habits, lifestyle problem (excessive STRESS) , side effect(s) of certain temporary medications and/or prescribed medicines and lastly because of medical condition.

2. If you are into miscellaneous causes like: consumption of non- vegetarian food, lack of sleep, addiction like frequent smoking/ consumption of alcohol, sedentary lifestyle then switching to lifestyle modifications along with dietary regime plus medicine will resolve most of the issue between 2-3 months.

3. Please make sure not to abruptly stop or discontinue your Pan20, but it will be wise to taper the dose and alternatively start with Ayurveda medicine. ( switch to tablet form of Pan 20: and take half tablet daily for 5 days, then half tablet on alternate days and then stop.

4. If medicine has effects it does have side effects, so although being Ayurveda medicine if one is not taking in prescribed dose along with said Anupana (which increase the efficacy of medicine) and in prescribed time (kala), it surely will show less efficacy.

Acidity Problem, I Take Pan 20 Or Cyra D Empty

Acidity Problem, I take Pan 20 or Cyra D empty stomach every morning and feel better whole day. I want to get rid of eating these medicines and improve my digestive system.
