Why take PPI only 2 weeks?

I heard gaviscon advanced is a good replacement for ppis. Recently I have been hearing more and more doctors taking their patients off them. They must have discovered that they are not good long term. I don’t have gi issues but I have silent reflux which has effected my post nasal drip and swallowing. I was on omeprazole for almost 2 months. It didn’t help at all and so I went off them. There’s a Dr Kaufman who wrote a book called Dropping Acid. He thinks the PPIs are poison and recommends a total diet change.
