How is GERD treated?GERD is treated with lifestyle changes, such as reducing alcohol intake, quitting smoking, and avoiding trigger foods. Your doctor may also recommend over-the-counter or prescription antacids, or prescription medications such asH2 blockers andproton-pump inhibitors to suppress gastric acids. If these recommendations are diligently followed and fail, surgery may be an option.What causes GERD?GERD is caused by the reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus, which occurs when your lower esophageal sphincter is either weak or it relaxes when it shouldn't. Other potential causes can include obesity, smoking, diet, alcohol intake, and pregnancy. GERD can also be due to various conditions, including abnormal biologic or structural factors.Is GERD curable?Though GERD is commonly a chronic condition that must be managed, conservative treatment is typically sufficient to do so. GERD surgery is a one-time procedure, but is generally recommended only in the presence of severe symptoms that do not respond to other treatment.
