What Helps Acid Reflux?
4. Antacids
Antacids are among the most common treatment for acid reflux. They work mainly by helping to reduce the levels of acidity in the stomach. Some products will also help provide immediate relief of burning to the esophagus. There are numerous types of antacid available and they can be purchased without a prescription.
Antacids are affordable and effective for most people. However they are unlikely to be enough to help people with the more severe cases. Although they are safe, they can cause unwelcome complications if they are used too regularly. Pregnant women in particular should be careful to avoid taking too many antacids.
