They are enteric coated, so they're meant to pass through your stomach and dissolve in your small intestines. If they stay in your stomach too long (if there's a lot food in there, for instance), they can dissolve in your stomach and that's what can cause the reflux.

The caps work best to prevent symptoms, by taking them before you eat.

For immediate help, or help when you have a full stomach, use the Peppermint Tummy Tea instead.

Best,
