Chronic Hyperacidity. Worsened Condition With Acid Reflux, Heartburn After Stopping Ayurvedic Medicines. History Of H Pylori Bacteria. Any Home Remedies?
Hi Dr B.S Taneja
I have chronic hyperacidity from almost 15 years. Somehow managing with diet control and allopathic medicine once in a while.. From last 2 months I was seriously taking avipatikkar churna along with mukta shukti bhasma, kamdhudha ras and moti pisthi. I did helped me but when I stopped it suddenly for a week because of non availability of the medicine from the store I take, I found my condition got worsened with my sleep getting disturbed at night because of acid reflux and heartburn.
How come these ayurvedic medicines also has the same effect as allopathy wherein you stopped something and the situation gets worsens more like addiction to body. I was detected with H. Pylori bacteria in my endoscopy 3 years back for which antibiotic treatment was done with no effect.
Anyway can you suggest some home made remedies please. I would like try that. I have consuming tulsi leaves from last 1 year. Doing regular Pranayam as well.But nothing much changes.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these measures for this type of a case, these includes.
1 Try raising the head of your bed about 4 inches with blocks.It also might help to avoid eating or drinking for 2 hours before you lie down.To help control stomach one should not drink alcohol or drinks with caffeine in them or spicy or greasy foods or eat chocolate.Also take some antacid ( better with oxetacaine in them) but in your case symptoms are severe you may need drugs like rebamipide 2-2-2 for at least six months without side effects.
2 Tension is the root cause of hyper acidity so in my opinion relax . If possible consult a psychiatrist and get his help.
3 Avoid hectic hurries life.
Good luck . Dr. HET
