What can be done to control acid reflux?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Proton pump meds: Helpful things are to take proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole, eat earlier in the day and avoid later night eating, elevate the head of the bed an inch or so and try to get a full nights sleep. If the condition persists, then you need to consult with a gastrointestinal specialist.
