Change your diet: You can start by changing you diet, high fat spicy food tend to make your symptoms worse. Limit alcohol smoking, excercise regularly, loose weight and drink lot of water stop sodas and coffee as much as possible .If you do some or all of what i suggest you may not have to take any of the medication in brief time.
