There are also two Alginic Acid and Antacids that place a layer of foam over the stomach acidic juices to prevent reflux. These tablets need to be chewed well so that the chemicals within them may be activated and the healing properties get released.

There are some medications that can be taken that have the ability to reduce acid reflux pain and eliminate the possibility of the stomach acid refluxing into the esophagus by strengthening the LES muscle. You should be aware that these medications can have side effects to them. You will need to talk to your doctor before you begin a course of treatment using those medications.

Reglan which is known as metoclopramide and Urecholine which is known as bethanecol both directly increase the strength of the LES muscle. They both are known to have side effects occurring from them. The medication called Propulsid otherwise known as Cisapride has been taken off the market due to its cardiac side effects.


Then there are prescription medications that can be taken for relief from acid reflux. However you will need to check with your physician regarding their side effects. Some of these drugs actually lower the strength of the LES muscle. These include the anti-spasmotics like Levsin, Librax, and Bentyl. Then there are the drugs that block the calcium intake. These are Procardia, Cardizem, Calan, and Isoptin.

Another type of acid cure reflux is Endoscopic Surgery. Here the surgery is accomplished by a laparoscopic technique where the surgery is accomplished through tiny holes in the belly button and upper abdomen. Recovery is quicker with this technique. There are as you see a number of these 'acid cure reflux' methods, just waiting for you to try them out, and get cured from your acid reflux.
