A member asked:

What causes bile reflux with somebody who doesnt have a gallbladder? & can medicines like protonix help it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be acid reflux. See your GP or preferably a specialist Gastroenterologist to determine via history/examination/lab tests/imaging the cause of your"reflux." Once properly diagnosed the appropriate treatment can be determined.
