Suggest Treatment For Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
My 20 year old son was diagnosed with GERD last year.. Medications did not seem to help. He was lost a significant amount of weight because he feels so much nausea he can not eat. He has a burning sensation and throws up several times a week. It is so bad now that he actually feels lethargic. I m concerned.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your son, if this is GERD then it need long term treatment and medications and that includes avoiding coffee, alcohol, smoking prior to bed, stress condition need be avoided and following medicines should be taken for 6 weeks
1) Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day at evening time
2) Tab Domperidone 30 mg once in day at evening time
hope this information helps, take care.
