What could cause persistent throat burning and acid reflux after eating that is only temporarily relieved for 5 to 10 minutes by an antacid?

Asked by Male, 25 · 13 days ago

When antacids only provide brief relief, it usually means acid is constantly backing up into your esophagus, which is common with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Antacids neutralize existing acid temporarily but do not stop your stomach from producing more. You might benefit from discussing longer-acting options with your doctor, such as generic H2 blockers (like famotidine) or proton pump inhibitors (like omeprazole), which help reduce acid production. Please consult a healthcare provider to find a safe, lasting solution.
