Brief Answer:
Karbofin and Duspatalin retard not adequate for GERD

Detailed Answer:
Hello again.

Karbofin contains plant extracts and charcoal. It is used in mild to moderate dyspepsia. Duspatalin retard is mebeverine which is an anti spasmodic. Both Karbofin and Duspatalin retard are used in the management of irritable bowel syndrome.

As suspected the treatment for GERD (Gastro esophageal reflux disease) is inadequate and needs to be revisited. Karbofin and Duspatalin retard will not adequately suppress the acid produced in your stomach. You need to be on PPIs along with the adjuvant treatment that I explained in the previous answer.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
