A member asked:

I am facing acidity and when i try to lie down in the night i feel gas pressure in my throat so please tell me what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Antacid: Antacid, prilosec, zantac (ranitidine). Are a few things you could try. If that has no effect you should see your physician. Also avoid eating for a few hours before you lie down. Also be sure you are not pregnant.
