Hello doctors, I am in my 5th month of pregnancy and having a problem with acid reflux. I was taking half tablet of digene whenever the problem was severe. I am not sure if it is safe to take during pregnancy. If not, which medicine I can take safely and what should be the dosage? Please help. Thanks.

Digene is safe in pregnancy. You can also take lots of curds and rest in reclining position to decrease reflux.

Yes, digene is safe in pregnancy but take one tablet (gel is good) on the other hand you should take sufficient amount of water (3-3.5 ltrs) & avoid spicy & chilly foods .keep your month clean by 2 times teeth brush morning & bedtime & gargling with warm water after each meal. Most importantly take little bit of water before and after meal but take after half an hour.
