GERD can be controlled by making some simple lifestyle changes. These changes include avoiding heavy meals and greasy foods and not eating anything at least 3 hours before bedtime. Usually, over-the-counter medications can provide short-term relief, but persistent GERD may require prescription medications and, in some cases, surgery.
