Xuan Fu Dai Zhe Shi Tang is generally effective in treating acid reflux and heartburn. This formula is highly effective for various gastric disorders, including vomiting, acid regurgitation, epigastric pain, and abdominal distension. Acid reflux and heartburn are most commonly caused by reflux gastritis; however, they may also result from excessive consumption of greasy foods, binge eating, or irregular eating habits.
