I switched from protonix (a PPI) after 6 years of constant use to Pepcid (an H2 blocker). Rebound reflux is real and I had to wean myself off the PPI gradually. Now, I take 40mg of Pepcid daily and Tums as needed.

Usually I'm allright if I avoid trigger foods (anything high in saturated fat, excessive sugar, onions, etc.). For some reason I can handle drinking coffee but black tea triggers my reflux like nothing else.
