The Online Clinic is now able to prescribe for patients who
suffer from heartburn (or Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD). This condition
is caused when stomach acid leaks out into the oesophagus, causing discomfort. As the symptoms of GORD can be confused with symptoms
of more serious underlying health problems, we will not prescribe in all cases.
Our online medical assessment is designed to ensure that you get the best
advice and that may be that we will not prescribe and we recommend an urgent
appointment with your GP.
The medications that are typically prescribed for GORD are
Omeprazole or Ranitidine. We do have other medications for this condition but
these are the two most commonly prescribed. You can read more about heartburn
and GORD here.
