I've been taking the DGL for about 8-10 weeks now. I still take it before meals...it won't hurt you, only help you. I believe that I read in one of the postings awhile backBack pain - low Back strain treatment that we should take it for 3 months (?) and if you are doing better and want to try "not" using it then, see what happens. But, I want to be on the safeSafe driving for teens Safe sex side and will continue to use it indefinitely. I believe it to be very healing and hope it helps you, too. I think I've said this before, but, it did take me longer than some to notice the improvement, but everyone's system is different. It took me at least 3 weeks, but I'm doing much better now. I also still use the aloe vera juice on occasion. Hang in there!
Let us know how the DGL works for you! At least give it 2 weeks of a good try. If you feel good results, keep using it until you are well for 3 months.

Michael T. Murray, ND (Naturopath) wrote in his book about Digestive problems, that DGL (De-Glycyrrhizinated Licorice) can be used daily, until about 3 months AFTER one has no more reflux &/or stomach problems. Then, you can try stopping the DGL, and see what happens. (My husband and I use DGL every day with good results.)
While using the DGL, follow label directions (chew 1 or 2 DGL tablet(s) for about 10 seconds, to mix with saliva,--do this about 20 minutes before EVERY MEAL), AND TRY USING THE DGL EVERY DAY, (shortly before each meal). DGL helps to HEAL the stomach, intestines, esophagus, throat, etc, AND the DGL seems to stop or lessen reflux in many people.
As Needabreak said, slowly, slowly wean off acid blockers because: SUDDEN stopping of acid blockers can cause "rebound" (extra) acid production in the stomach, causing worse GERD symptoms!
Let us know how the DGL works for you! At least give it 2 weeks of a good try. If you feel good results, keep using it until you are well for 3 months.
I also hope you will try ALL the "Gastric Reflux Tips (without acid blockers)", because there are MANY things in addition to the DGL, that can help lessen GERD for many people.
