Start Your Online Consultation Process
Getting prescription treatment for acid reflux through EverydayMeds begins with our straightforward online consultation.

Available Acid Reflux Treatments
EverydayMeds offers several proven prescription treatments for acid reflux management. Omeprazole 20mg capsules remain the most commonly prescribed proton pump inhibitor (PPI), effectively reducing stomach acid production for up to 24 hours. Alternative treatments include Lansoprazole 15mg capsules, Pantoprazole 20mg tablets, and Esomeprazole tablets, each working to control acid production and protect the stomach lining.
Proton Pump Inhibitors Explained
PPIs like Omeprazole work by blocking the enzyme responsible for acid production in your stomach. This reduction in acid helps heal damaged oesophageal tissue and prevents further irritation. Most patients experience symptom relief within 2-3 days of starting treatment, with maximum benefits typically achieved after one week of consistent use.
H2 Receptor Blockers Alternative
For patients who may not be suitable for PPI therapy, Famotidine tablets offer an alternative approach. These H2 receptor blockers work by reducing the amount of acid your stomach produces, though they typically work faster than PPIs but for shorter durations. Your prescriber will recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your individual circumstances.
Treatment Duration and Management
Most acid reflux treatments are initially prescribed for 4-8 week courses, allowing time for symptoms to resolve and any inflammation to heal. Your prescriber may recommend lifestyle modifications alongside medication, including dietary changes and meal timing adjustments. Regular review ensures your treatment remains effective and appropriate for your ongoing needs.
Prescription Approval and Delivery
Once your consultation is reviewed and approved, your prescription will be dispensed by our registered pharmacy and dispatched for delivery. Most orders are processed within 24 hours of approval, with next-day delivery options available. All medications are supplied in original manufacturer packaging with clear dosing instructions and patient information leaflets.
