Good afternoon.
I would like to know what was your diagnosis?
Was it only reflux? Or something else?
Sompraz is usually not used for such a long duration except for in some condition?
Do give me a detail history? What was the diagnosis?
Is it still happening? What other drugs are you on? Have you had a pH monitoring of your gastric acid?
Do consult me.
Health Tips
If you’re currently facing any reflux, try to include antacids after food- mucaine gel will help.

3 months are more than enough, you may stop but don't stop abruptly. Go slow. Also if you consulted the doc here try customer care. They'll guide...
