You nailed it Dr. This is the best explanation on acid reflux meds. Please sign up to lecture students as well if you have the time. I can pass my pharmacology exam on this topic just by listening to you. You are the best.👏👏👏

What about the non-functioning of the LES? (Lower esophageal sphincter) that allows the acid to shoot back up into the esophagus?

You are welcome!
Thank you my doctor kept insisting I had Covid even though I kept telling him I have acid reflux severely. Raw throat, esophagus, and back of the mouth, plus my stomach doesn’t seem to settle. This is the first time I’ve seen a video explaining the different medicine and at what level to use them. Will be getting a 3rd tier medicine immediately. I’ve been suffering and feeling horrible for 3 weeks!
Oh wow! I hope what you pick works for you. Acid Reflux can be painful and uncomfortable. All the best.
Hello MiMi how is everything working for you I have been having some of the same problems for a while now
How are you feeling now??
@@MyWilliam41 did you feel better now?
@@Therey1898 no still going through, im trying to go the Natural way I can't take the PPI meds, it gives me a very bad headache ....
Can you take pepcid with tums for dual relief? If so what's the same dose for GERD
And when you have low levels of magnesium you will have Restless Leg Sindrome. Magnesium supplementation is often suggested for restless legs syndrome (RLS)
Pepcid AC works exceptionally well for me. In about the past year I have been getting heartburn. I have tried tums with no luck, gaviscon does work, but does not last long, and pepcid AC works extremely well, because it reduces acid. When I take a pepcid AC pill it can give me relief for up to 2 days at a time.
THe box says you can't take Pepcid for more than 14 days in a row. DO oyu take a break inbeteen 2 week use periods, and if so, how long?
@@AnimatedLoopHD I haven't had to take Pepcid very much lately because I have been very Physically Active. I started losing weight and the heartburn started decreasing hugely. I still get it but nowhere near as severe
Hey Doctor! I’ve been having a rumbling stomach and burning sensation after eating in the stomach. The acidity has caused my tongue to have a thick white coating for 3 months now. What should I take to stomach the burning in my stomach, indigestion, excessive flatulence, dark brown stool and acid reflux cough. What can I buy? My stomach is making noises right now!
👌
Can you 🙏 please do a video to help me with IBS issues swelling of my intestines bad swelling after eating
Pls I have urinal pain for soo many years have been taken medicine but still not I need a proper medication pls
My Doctor put me on Rabeprazole sodium 20mg and though it helped the heartburn, it completely changed the way things taste and smell and caused a very distinct unpleasent odor upon emptying my system. I have discontinued use and hopeful that things will go back to normal soon. I prefer to enjoy what I eat. Things like potatoes, chicken, buttered bread and eggs have become virtually impossible for me to eat due to the flavour.
I have heartburn and acid reflux, i feel bloated and full, i also feel pain in my right back shouder and colar bone, i have a itchy throat and i have phlegm in my throat without cough. is this serious? am i going to be alright?
and i do feel my symptoms get worse after eating
How are you now?
@@KevinDC927 Seems to be getting better but having some other issues with other meds so eliminating them as well. I really don't think medications are a great idea unless absolutely necessary.
I’m a 65 year old Uk male and have been taking ppi Esomeprazole 40mg per day for over 20 years in versus forms, due to being diagnosed with a hiatal hernia, I have recently had an endoscopy which showed I still have the hiatus hernia, my doctor has added famotidine 40mg 2 per day, I also take gaviscon when needed, I would like to come off all medications, is this possible?
Does eating aloe vera help with this problem?
The recent report in Neurology journal about the dangers of omeprazole taken long-term increasing the chance of dementia by a third are very worrying for someone like myself who has been taking it for years. Add to that it seems to increase considerably the chances of heart attack pneumonia and loss of bone density and I think we have a big disaster looming
All my doctor could suggest is that I should stop taking it and use Gaviscon instead
Pepcid ac is not supposed to be for more than 2 weeks. Then what?
Anta acid

@@fggaming6258 what was the diagnosis? I'm having some similar symptoms
@@fggaming6258 what did they treat you with? Having these same symptoms
@@kerryarmstrong2876 I started by eating less and eating 5 times a day. I wait for 2-3 hours before activity and lying down. Eating fruits like Banana and Apple which is good for acid reflux. For medicines, they gave me Sodium Alginate+Sodium Bicarbonate+Calcium Carbonate which is like Gaviscon,and i take it 15minutes before breakfast lunch dinner and bedtime, and i also been prescribed proton pump inhibitor (Pantoprazole) ones a day after breakfast.
Sir, if you are serious about becoming a doctor, look for the root cause and stop "staring" at reducing symptoms with pharmaceuticals and synthetic compounds. Mother nature is bountiful and gives us freely everything we need. Look deeper ❣ with love
I believe there is a place for both pharmaceuticals and natural healing substances and I don't look down on either of them. I appreciate you watching and taking time to comment.
What natural remedies do u use or recommend please? Ive stopped PPIs been on years they are poison but doc attitude is take it or don’t. Im in awful pain
@@Annie-tk6ig the reason for acid reflux is actually LOW stomach acid. I listen to some very competent doctors here on YT: Dr. Eric Berg, Dr. Sten Ekberg, Dr. Josh Axe. Find them and listen to what they have to say in regards to your health issue. Hope this helps 💚
@@emilyeah thank you i wIll 💕
@@Annie-tk6ig more docs came to mind:
Mark Hyman, Peter Osborne, Darren Schmidt, Dr. Sircus. Also excellent podcasts with interviews: Dhru Purohit, Tom Bilyeu. The truth is out there. Seek and ye shall find.
