As you probably know, medications, you should review the options, are only one aspect of treatment.
Another is raising the head of your bed 6 to 8 degrees.
Also your diet is a key to avoiding the symptoms.
Unfortunately, it is not likely that you can "fix" the cause, a weak lower esophageal sphincter, allowing the "back flow" of bile and acid into the food pipe/your throat.
