Suggest Treatment For Acid Reflux, Heartburn And Burping

Hello, I just started taking Nexium yesterday for my heartburn, acid reflux and constant burping. I am not feeling instant results like I did with Prilosec. I know it says 1-4 days to get the full effect, but I like prilosec better. Is it safe to switch over to Prilosec even if I already started taking Nexium?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to gastritis.

For that you can take tablet pantoprazole after consultation.

Along with that you can take syp mucaine gel after consultation.

Along with that avoid hot and spicy foods. Take light foods.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
