Stopping Rabeprazole and Domperidone suddenly after 10 years can cause severe "rebound acidity." To stop safely, you must gradually taper the dose over several weeks under your doctor's supervision, for example, reducing intake to every other day before stopping. During this transition, lifestyle measures like eating smaller meals, avoiding trigger foods, and not lying down immediately after eating are highly effective. Regarding homoeopathy, while some patients explore it for symptom relief, there is limited scientific evidence that it can permanently cure chronic acidity. Please consult your healthcare provider to design a safe tapering schedule and discuss sustainable long-term management.
