For GERD management ypu have to try some lifestyle modification also and you have to to do some investigations that i will discuss with you
Please connect me throgh practo app or wattsap
Ligestyke changes
Eat smaller meals
Elevate head while sleeping
Lose weight if overweight
Avoid trigger foods (coffee, alcohol, spicy/fatty foods, chocolate, carbonated drinks)
Avoid lying down for 2–3 hours after eating
Use antacids like
T. Rantac 150 mg 1-0-0 b/f 5 days
Or
T pantop 40 mg od 5 days
No...first thing is to change lifestyle and take small frequent meals..
If the course was not useful It means there has to be a modified regime for GERD that should be initiated
Next Steps
if you really need insights you can go to a gastroenterologist or consult
First of all for GERD you need to modify your lifestyle. Walk for a couple of kms in a day. Eat atleast 3-4 hours prior bedtime and sleep while head end elevated- with 2 pillows beneath.
If you feel chest pain you have mucain gel 10ml three times a day.
But mainstay remains lifestyle modifications along with pharmacological therapy.
Next Steps
Tell me when you feel the heartburn or pain the most
Till u don't change life style n diet plan drastically first no therapy gives u proper results.
Mucain gel 10ml without water nothing by mouth till 30min can be taken 3to 4times.

I understand your concern. Many patients with GERD rely on antacids, but regular use often causes constipation, which explains your current problem. Antacids also give only temporary relief and do not treat the root cause.
For mild symptoms, it is better to use famotidine instead of frequent antacids. For more persistent GERD, proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, pantoprazole, etc.) are more effective in the long run.
Ayurveda can support GERD management, but only when combined with proper diet and lifestyle changes – not just by taking one tablet.
Next Steps
If you want a complete diet chart and detailed lifestyle plan for GERD, you can contact me.
Health Tips
Stop frequent antacid use to avoid constipation.
Eat small, non-spicy meals and avoid lying down after food.
Increase fiber and water intake to relieve constipation.
Elevate head while sleeping.
Consult a gastroenterologist if symptoms persist (endoscopy may be needed).
Antacids as such do not cause constipation
Although constipation and GERD go hand in hand
You need to treat constipation along
Also it is important to make lifestyle changed in GERD
