Hi,
Thanks for choosing "Ask a Doctor service.
Most likely your symptoms are because of Gatro esophageal reflux disease (GERD),It is a chronic digestive disease. GERD occurs when stomach acid or, occasionally, stomach content, flows back into your food pipe . The backwash irritates the lining of your esophagus which causes intense burning sensation in throat. Nausea vomiting etc
Advice
Ask your gastroenterologist to prescribe you Pantoprazole initially in hig 40 mg twice daily railways,Ask him to add Domepridome 30mg slow release once daily,This will slow down the reflux of acid back and would provide symptomatic relief.An antacid containing local anaesthetic could be added to drug regimen.Acotiamide is a new drug and is very effective in controlling symptoms of GERD and esophagitis.In trials- Acotiamide,a gastrointestinal motility modulator,at a standard dose of 100mg thrice daily has significantly affected esophageal motor functions or gastroesophageal reflux in healthy adults.
All these drugs can be considered by your gastroentrologist to provide you with symptomatic relief.
Apart from medicines few other life style changes are adviced-
- Increase warm water intake
- Do not drink water during and after meals
- Eat small meals (rich in fiber),Avoid spicy,oily and heavy meals.
- Eat plentiful "fresh oranges" and "pear "
- Drink COLD milk and and AVOID junk food.
- Avoid beverages / alcohol/ soft drinks
- Do some exercise early in the morning
- Avoid carbonated drinks
Discuss with your gastroenterologist and take medicines for 21 days;If not relieved a upper G.I endoscopy would be done
Follow up after 2-3 weeks.
Thank you!
