General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease. I suggest you use an antacid such as Maloox. I also recommend using Pantoprazole in the morning before breakfast to lower the acidity in the stomach.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
