Hello! Thank you for writing. You should take your doctor prescription as it is an omeprasole that treats GERDS symptoms. Try not to eat acidic food for excample: tomatoe, onions, oranges, etc. Try to eat alkaline foods such as milk and it's derivates. Don't lie down immediately after eating. Eat at least 2 hours before sleep. Try to use a little bit high pillow. Eat salad, and cut out immediately fried and processed food. Thank you. Best regards.
