How can nighttime GERD symptoms be reduced?
Elevating the head of the bed about six inches may help reduce nighttime GERD symptoms. Do this by propping up the mattress or bed frame, or using a large wedge pillow. Sleeping on a stack of regular pillows can lead to back or neck pain and compression on the stomach that could increase GERD symptoms.

Prices for GERD medicines are shown in Hong Kong dollars, US dollars or another currency you pick from the currency menu. Each product card on this page gives the starting price per capsule or tablet, and the product page lists every strength and pack size with its price.
Which medicine classes treat GERD?
Two medicine classes that suppress acid secretion are used for GERD: H2 receptor antagonists, known as H2RAs, and proton pump inhibitors, known as PPIs. H2RAs block the effect of histamine, which stimulates cells in the stomach to produce acid. PPIs block an enzyme necessary for acid secretion.
