Does Trazadone/Amitriptyline help reflux?

I have noticed that when I take even 1/4 of Trazadone or Amitriptyline for sleep that the next day I have practically no reflux symptoms. Has anyone noticed this in their history or experience with gastro-esophageal problems?

Yes I find Amitriptyline to really help reflux. Given it by a Gastroenterologist many years ago and really helps after my 2 oesophagus cancer surgeries and as a bonus helps you to sleep. Not all doctors are aware of this.
