For my husband

I remember reading that several of you are on a daily med for acid reflux. My husband is finally seeing the doctor about his (after much nagging) and it would be good to know what you all thinks helps. He is on no other medication and doesn't have COPD.

Many thanks in advance.

I take Omeprozole find them very good, also two of my sons and son in law take them.

Son- in - law swears by them as he also has hiatus hernia.

Hi Lnne,

I take 20mg Omeprazole 1 twice a day. I have hiatus hernia which causes acid reflux but this medication keeps it under control very well. I also avoid very spicy food, curries etc. Hope he soon gets sorted.
