I have GERD and have been having bad acid reflux all week. Due to this I have not had any drugs or alcohol all week. A break the first couple days was nice but now I'm stressed out of my mind and need to take some drugs to relax that will not stimulate my acid reflux. What can I take?
 
We don't allow what-can-I-take threads, but I'll let this thread stay open for a few hours, if that due to your health limitations, but that doesn't make you an exception to the rule, no offense intended at all. I don't want you to hurt yourself getting high, nor do I want you to be asking what you can get high on given your physical limitations, so do know that this thread WILL be closed sooner rather than later.
 
Have you seen a doctor for this lately? I've had this problem for a long time and had to get endoscopy/colonoscopy done twice over the years. The diagnosis was GERD too. The thing with taking omeprazole/prevacid/protonix (I've been prescribed so many) is they aggravated my IBS. Plus you start depending on it every day and not getting such great relief.

I notice certain foods and coffee make it much worse. I can recommend that you avoid opiates and even tramadol messes with my stomach. If omeprazole isn't helping, definitely see your doctor and get it checked out.
 
Don't know if I have GERD, but am real sensitive to heartburn. Opioids cause them, benzos seem to, dunno about alcohol but I would guess so.

If you wanna take drugs make sure they're in salt form and plug them, better for your stomach.
 
Opiates don't bother my stomach, and I've had a nasty case of gerd for years. Benzos don't bother it either. My DOC for heartburn is Pepcid complete. The name brand is way more expensive, but way better for some reason.
 
Opiates don't bother my stomach, and ... Benzos don't bother it either.

I don't think there are many drugs that directly increase stomach acid production.

And that's the answer we should all take home here. See a healthcare professional about your acid reflux, they can tell you a lot more about this than we can.
