The majority of acid reflux cases are actually from low stomach acid and/or lack of digestive enzymes in the diet. Taking digestive enzymes with meals is recommended. You may also need to supplement with Bettine hydrochloride to increase stomach acid.

Ginger capsules. Cheaper too.

I was once a fishery observer. One time the boat I was on broke down. The rolling of the ocean, the heat, and the fact that I was overdressed against the wind, combined to make me so nauseous I didn't I'd be able to hold it down. I popped two ginger capsules, and literally within seconds my stomach was calm. It was incredible. I understand you're asking about acid reflux, but give it a try, herbs are much more stable than synthetic derivatives, more nutritious, and a whole lot cheaper.
