Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello dear,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.
Your current drugs are not effective in maintaining you acidity.
You should take the strong drugs like pantoprazole and domperidone combination half hour before meal under your doctors guidance.
Please do not eat heavily eat small but frequent diet.
Walk a while after eating, till you got burp this will evacuate stored gas from the stomach and prevent acid reflux.
Please put high pillow while sleeping. This can also prevent reflux.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM.
