Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic and thanks for putting up the follow up query
Gastric acid reflux is treated using antacids but to maintain the effect, one has to follow few lifestyle measures.
take antacid like pantoprazole 40 mg regularly for at least 3 weeks.
All the medicines I prescribed are available only on prescription
Along with this follow the following measures
1. Avoid spicy foods and aerated drinks
2. Eat small but frequent diet
3. Go for a walk daily
4. Try to move around a little after you have your meal
5. Take a roughage rich diet like salads
6. Drink plenty of water

Wishing you a speedy recovery
Thanks and regards
