Dear Rakesh Jhani To prevent heartburn, avoid foods and beverages that may trigger your symptoms. For most people, these include: Alcohol Caffeine Carbonated beverages Chocolate Citrus fruits and juices Tomatoes Tomato sauces Spicy or fatty foods Full-fat dairy products Peppermint Spearmint If other foods regularly give you heartburn, avoid those foods, too. Also, try the following changes for your eating habits and lifestyle: Avoid bending over or exercising just after eating Avoid garments or belts that fit tightly around your waist Do not lay down having a full stomach. For instance, avoid eating within Two to three hours of bedtime. Do not smoke. Eat smaller meals. Lose weight if you are overweight. Reduce stress. Sleep together with your head raised about 6 inches. Do this by tilting your whole bed, or by using a wedge beneath your body, not just with normal pillows. Over-the-counter antacids can be utilized after meals and also at bedtime, although they do not last lengthy. Common side effects of antacids include diarrhea or constipation. Other over-the-counter and prescription drugs can treat GERD. They work more slowly than antacids but give you longer relief. Your pharmacist, doctor, or nurse can tell you how to get these drugs. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the strongest acid inhibitors: omeprazole, esomeprazole, iansoprazole, rabeprazole, and pantoprazole H2 antagonists: famotidine, cimetidine, ranitidine, and nizatidine Promotility agents: metoclopramide Anti-reflux operations Nissen fundoplication may be an option for patients whose symptoms don't disappear with change in lifestyle and drugs. Heartburn and other symptoms should improve after surgery, however, you may still have to take drugs for your heartburn. There's also new therapies for reflux that can be performed through an endoscope. |
