Hi,
Thank you for your query.
1. Mucaine Gel 1 tbsp thrice a day x 1 week, a Proton Pump Inhibitor (such as rabeprazole, pantoprazole, omeprazole), a pro kinetic (such as levosulpiride, cinitapride) for 2 weeks is normally successful in relieving such symptoms.
2. Diet and lifestyle changes are equally important. In severe cases medication may continue for 8 to 12 weeks.
3. If there is no relief, conditions such as a sliding hernia, h.pylori infection should be ruled out.
I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.
