Could You Suggest Some Home Remedies And Care To Be Taken For Acid Reflux After Taking Nexpro?

hiee iam Saibabu from India. Iam suffring from burping and sore throat from last 1 week. i went to an Gastroentologist and he has said that it is due to Acid reflux and suggested me to take Nexpro - 40mg for 1 month early in the morning. Earlier i used to take heavy spicy food and fried food and more non veg but from last 2months i have stopped taking spicy food, fried food, alcohol and also stopped smoking and taking small meals and reduced about 5kgs and as of now iam 115kgs at an age of 23yrs. Please suggest me with the home remidies and the care that has to be taken with acid reflux.

Hello
Thanks for the query to HCM.
As diagnosis is already clear so avoidance and certain precaution will treat you completely .
1 Try raising the head of your bed about four inches with blocks.To help control one should not over eat . It also might help to avoid eating or drinking for 2 hours before you lie down. One should not eat chocolates or drinks with caffeine in them.
2 The most important point in acid reflux is tension and stress of day to day life , so if possible avoid tension and stress.
3 Frequent meal but in very small amount also help . Tepid water sip by sip also helps.
As I have noted in my patients that when they don't eat spicy or fried or fatty food , they eat very large amount of fruits and vegetable , this large amount also develop hyper acidity .
Eat healthy but in limit .
Avoid ,
Stress,
Spices,
Spirit ,
Smoking ,
Strain and you will feel acid free.
Good luck.
