Hello doctor. I have hourly burping and bloating after meals but no heartburn. My doctor diagnosed it acid reflux and put me on Omeprazole 40mg but it seems to make my symptoms 2x worse. Today I tried some digestive enzyme supplements and it seems to help a bit. What would you advise on treating this problem? Thank you.

What can I do to treat burping?
Featured Answer
Burping is normal and generally results from swallowing of air while eating or drinking especially if drinking carbonated beverages. It generally does not require treatment. It can also be a sign of dyspepsia, and that is why your doctor correctly tried the omeprezole. However, if it is not helping, I would discuss this with your doctor and then stop the medication. If the supplements seem to be helping, you could continue. It is very unlikely, but this might possibly suggest a gallbladder issue. Also, avoid all carbonated beverages.
Best of luck!

It's frustrating that traditional medicine is not caught up to its own peer-reviewed medical research indicating better treatment of gastrointestinal disorders with holistic methods than that of covering up the symptoms with medication.
Drugs alter normal body physiology that cause adverse reactions in several body organ systems. Here is the list of the adverse reactions from the drugs you're taking:
Allergic reaction: Itching or hives, swelling in your face or hands, swelling or tingling in your mouth or throat, chest tightness, trouble breathing
Blistering, peeling, or red skin rash
Fever, joint pain, swelling in the body, unusual weight gain, change in how much or how often you urinate
Seizures, dizziness, uneven heartbeat, muscle cramps or twitching
Severe diarrhea, stomach cramps, fever
Stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, weight loss
Stop the madness. Instead of using outdated harmful treatment, I recommend you step outside of the medical box to the relatively new science of functional medicine.
