How to choose

Look for services that screen for alarm symptoms, give a defined treatment course rather than an open-ended prescription, and have a plan for stepping therapy down instead of leaving you on acid suppression indefinitely.

How it works

Complete an intake covering symptom pattern, triggers and alarm features, have a licensed clinician review it, and begin a defined course of acid suppression alongside lifestyle changes.

What you get

  • Prescription-strength treatment without an in-person appointment
  • Screening that catches symptoms needing endoscopy
  • A defined course with a step-down plan

Acid Reflux questions, answered

What medications treat acid reflux?

Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole and pantoprazole are the most effective acid suppressants for GERD. H2 blockers such as famotidine are an alternative for milder symptoms. Both are usually prescribed as a defined course alongside lifestyle changes.

When does reflux need in-person investigation?

Difficulty or pain on swallowing, unintentional weight loss, anaemia, vomiting blood or black stools are alarm symptoms that need urgent in-person assessment and usually endoscopy. Reflux that does not respond to a full treatment course also warrants further investigation.

Can I stay on a PPI long term?

Long-term use is sometimes appropriate but should be a deliberate decision reviewed periodically, not a default. Many people can step down to intermittent or on-demand use once symptoms are controlled, which is something the prescribing clinician should plan with you.
