Abstract

The incidence of complicated gastroesophageal reflux disease is more than 2.5-fold higher in elderly people. The age factor is of the greatest importance for mucosal ulceration in the distal esophagus. The proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-alginate (Gaviscon®) combination is a more pathogenetically sound treatment than PPI monotherapy.
