Reflux: Nocturnal acid reflux may be lessened if you can sleep with the head of your bed elevated,avoiding caffeine,alcohol,nicotine and avoiding spicey and fatty foods especially later in the day and taking prilosec before supper. If your symptoms are not controlled, consult a gastroenterologist for evaluation and treatment.
