Prilosec seems to work the best for me – try taking 2 tablets each day instead of one if it gets really bad.
Good Luck

That depends, if you're looking to treat the disease itself, there isnt anything i know of short of perscriptions that take care of it. If you only want to treat the symptoms, any weak base, such as baking soda, will neutralize the acid. Change in diet, like avoiding sodas, spicy or acidic foods, or eating quickly may also help.

sleeping with the front of the bed elevated,or putting a foam wedge under your mattress(where your head goes),dont lie down prone on a couch while watching t v. if you lie flat the acid will ride back up into your throat and cause problems.my little 2 month old niece has this condition and it hurts us to see her cry out in pain.so,try these tricks of the trade and I hope you feel better soon.

Over the counter ( 20 mg) Prilosec is the best choice for acid reflux. I couldn't believe the difference it has made with me. ( No more constantly using tums ) Start with only one tablet in the morning before breakfast. In about a week or less you will feel the results. Walmart is the cheapest I have found for Prilosec, unless you trust the generic ( from over the net, sent to you from India) Try the Prilosec. I'll bet you will be glad you did. Good Luck.

Try to avoid the following:
tomatoes..even ketchup. Caffeine..even chocolate, soda pop or any carbonation drinks, onions, mint…don't even use mint flavored tooth paste, fried food.
Eat several small meals during the day, when your stomach is full the acid builds up faster, you will feel pain in your chest that only goes away when you have vomited. Avoid eating 2 hours before bed. Acid Reflux or Gerd is known for being worse at night because of you laying down.
Maybe try to keep a journal of what and how much you have eaten, and at which time of day. After a while you will see a pattern and learn so much about your body and what is making it sick.
My daughter was sick for 3 straight months and this is what we did. I truly hope this helps and that you feel better soon!

More often than not , the problem is from not having enough stomach acid. Doctors get there info from Drug Reps. selling medications and push these drugs. Go to a Health Food store and get stomach acid supplements. Take the dose recommend on the label, if you get heartburn then your problem is to much acid in your stomach. Try the stomach acids first , you may correct your condition.
