Start Your Online Consultation Today
EverydayMeds makes it simple to access acid reflux treatment without visiting your GP. Our online consultation service connects you with UK-qualified pharmacists who can assess your symptoms and recommend appropriate medication. The process typically takes just 5-10 minutes and covers your medical history, current symptoms, and treatment preferences.
Proven Acid Reflux Medications Available
Our pharmacy stocks a comprehensive range of acid reflux treatments to suit different needs. Omeprazole 20mg capsules remain the most commonly prescribed proton pump inhibitor (PPI), effectively reducing stomach acid production for up to 24 hours. For those preferring branded options, Losec MUPS 20mg tablets offer the same active ingredient in a different formulation.
Alternative PPI options include lansoprazole 15mg capsules, pantoprazole 20mg tablets, and esomeprazole tablets. These medications work by blocking the enzyme system responsible for acid production in your stomach. For patients who may not be suitable for PPIs, famotidine tablets provide an effective H2 receptor blocker alternative.
How Proton Pump Inhibitors Work
PPIs like omeprazole target the final step in stomach acid production, providing longer-lasting relief compared to antacids. These medications typically begin working within 1-2 hours, with maximum effect reached after 1-4 days of regular use. They're particularly effective for treating gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), stomach ulcers, and frequent heartburn.
Dosage and Treatment Duration
Standard treatment typically involves taking 20mg once daily, preferably before breakfast. Some patients may require 40mg daily for more severe symptoms, as determined during your pharmacist consultation. Short-term courses of 2-4 weeks often provide significant symptom relief, though some conditions may require longer treatment periods.
