“Hydrochlorhydria” is when you do not make enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach you have the same symptoms acid reflux, burping, heartburn, gas, bloating etc doctors & vets hear the symptoms & just assume your making too much hydrochloric acid & prescribe an ant acid medication…what I’m finding with Patch, he feels sick or vomits after taking Zantac, he vomited after taking Pepcid, he had pain after eating when he took Losec & Somac, after taking Carafate he was whinging & crying, so I’m starting to think he’s not making enough stomach acid & when he takes an ant-acid medication, it makes everything worse apparently as we get older we don’t make as much hydrochloric acid…I don’t think there’s any tests for dog or cats to find out if they’re not making enough hydrochloric acid.

99% of the Time it is Low Stomach Acidity (Hypochlorhydria) Which Causes Heartburn, Acid Reflux and Hair Loss – Antacids Make The Problem Worse!
