Anyone tried vonoprazan (Voquenza)? It just got approved in the USA, but is commonly available in Asia.

EDIT: Took for about 4 weeks and it helped me maybe 50-70% each night, but I don't think acid suppression is a great long term solution. But still far more effective than PPI's for me. I plan to just use it before bed when I didn't abstain to a strict diet. I don't think there exists a cure for most of us right now.

I'm curious if this might help as I didn't see any difference with PPI's for LPR.
