Sucralfate liquid coats your esophagus and stomach from the acid. It’s a prescription.

I am 4 months in with a gastritis w hyperplasia. Acid reflux and Barrett’s diagnosis. I take two 20 mg Nexium OTC twice daily, baclofen 5m 3 times during day and one hour before bedtime. The biggie is the sucralfate liquid 20ml that I use 3 times a day before meals and at bedtime. In the beginning I had to take an extra dose of sucralfate in middle of night. Took a good month to start seeing results. At two months I was seeing better results. If I take less Nexium I feel burning. I also do everything regarding eating. I have the foam lift triangle pillow to raise my upper body. One has to get serious with everything!
