The Facts About Heartburn, GERD and EKG Machines (Part 77): A HP Minishot Product Review

As for the seventy-seventh entry for this new article series entitled as The Facts About Heartburn, GERD and EKG Machines, we will just continue on discussing here about the things we should know on heartburn, and GERD.

A main point to remember about PPIs is that patients should never abruptly stop taking them. When PPIs are discontinued, the dose should gradually be decreased (tapered). You see, tapering the dose minimizes the rebound hypersecretion that can occur when PPIs are stopped.

Thus, if a patient is hospitalized and cannot eat (or take pills), then intravenous acid-suppressing drugs at higher doses should be given to tide them over. Also, gradual lowering (tapering) of the dose of PPIs should be done when these drugs are to be discontinued after fundoplication (anti-reflux surgery) operations for GERD.
