Reflux esophagitis getting worse with medication may be related to increased abdominal pressure, delayed gastric emptying, drug insensitivity, etc. It can be treated by adjusting the diet, changing the medication, and surgical treatment.
1. Increased abdominal pressure: due to excessive obesity, vomiting or ascites, the lower esophageal sphincter can be damaged. If it is often stimulated, it may become more and more serious even though it is taking medicines, and the patient can elevate the head of the bed when sleeping, and also needs to adjust the diet and control the weight.
2. Delayed gastric emptying: if you take drugs, often eat too much or constipation and other reasons, can also lead to increased pressure in the stomach and cause acid reflux, patients should also pay attention to a light diet, three meals a day at regular intervals, drink a lot of water, and develop a good bowel habit.
3. Drug insensitivity: It may be that the patient is not sensitive to the drugs he is currently taking, leading to more and more serious after taking the drugs, which can be replaced with other drugs for treatment. If the effect of internal medicine treatment is still poor, surgery can be considered, such as laparoscopic fundoplication.
All of the above drugs are contraindicated for those who are allergic to them and should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. If the patient is diagnosed with reflux esophagitis, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital in time, after clarifying the cause of the disease, under the guidance of the doctor to carry out targeted treatment, in order to reduce the adverse effects of the disease.
