Gastroesophageal Reflux Treatment in Infancy Through Young Adulthood.

ABSTRACT

Gastroesophageal reflux treatment varies greatly across the pediatric age spectrum. Infant reflux treatments rely heavily on nutritional interventions, whereas reflux in older children is treated more commonly with medications. However, because of the broad differential diagnosis, treatment nonresponse merits a re-evaluation of the diagnosis being treated and additional testing to provide a more precision-medicine approach to care.
