A:I know of 2 types of drugs used to treat this condition. The first group includes proton pump inhibitors such as Pantoprazole and Esomeprazole. Not enough research has been conducted in order to get a clear picture of their effect on pregnancy. The other group includes steroids, that are anti inflammatory drugs. The fact is that some steroids can cross the placenta and can effect the fetus. you should consult your doctor for more specific information. I'm sure he'll be able to give you some good advice. All the best.
