This is particularly true when it comes to gastroenterologistâs âtreatment optionsâ for GERD and gastritis. One of the most over prescribed prescription medications has to be the proton pump inhibitor (PPI). Such medications are used to treat GERD/Acid reflux. These include over the counter medications like Mylanta, Gaviscon , Maalox or Rolaids or prescription only medications such as Prilosec, Nexium and Prevacid. In 2012 the estimate of prescriptions written for PPIâs was 157 million.
Prescription PPIs are approved to: 1  Treat symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a chronic digestive disorder that occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. 2  Get rid of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a type of bacteria usually found in the stomach.
