Acidity and antacids are not working
My father 62 years old is having too much acidity and indigestion. No antacid is working to reduce his stomach acid. He does not have any stomach pain or stool problem. He has high blood sugar ff 195 and pp 350. He eats less oily food. When he eats pepfiz, it reduces his acid. He is a smoker also. He has diabetic neuropathy. In 2020, he has been diagnosed with antral gastritis. But then he has recovered. But again from one or two months he is facing this problem.
