Abstract
The clinical inefficacy of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is very frequently encountered in nonerosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (NERD) in particular. Postprandial acid pocket, weak-acid or alkaline reflux, etc. are one of the causes of resistance to antisecretory drugs. Alginates serve as a good alternative to PPIs in treating NERD and gastroesophageal reflux in children and pregnant women. The alginate test may help diagnose NERD.
