Q: Can I reduce my acidity problem by changing my lifestyle habits?

Yes, you can control acidity problem by incorporating certain lifestyle modifications. Eat smaller meals more frequently throughout the day, avoid lying down for 1 hour after a meal. Wear loose-fittin...

Q: When should I take the Rafilon Tablet?
