Summary

The investigators purposes are to define the prevalence of omeprazole resistance gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in systemic sclerosis (SSc), to compare the efficacy of omeprazole in combination with algycon versus omeprazole in combination with domperidone on the severity of reflux symptoms in omeprazole resistant GERD in SSc, and to compare the efficacy of omeprazole in combination with algycon versus omeprazole in combination with domperidone on the frequency of symptoms in omeprazole- resistant GERD in SSc.

Eligibility Criteria

Phase 1 SSc patients who fit all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be eligible to phase 1 study for evaluation the prevalence of omeprazole resistant-GERD

Inclusion criteria

  • SSc patients aged between 18 and 65 years.
  • Clinically diagnosed as GERD and GERD-questionnaire score >3
  • Must not receive any proton pump inhibitor (PPI) or prokinetic drug within 2 weeks before baseline evaluation

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • Previous history of gastroesophageal surgery or endoscopic therapy due to severe erosive esophagitis
  • Present of Barrett's esophagus
  • Bedridden and confined to no self-care
  • Evidence of active malignant disease
  • Present of uncontrolled or severe medical problems such as asthma, angina, hepatic or renal diseases
  • Present of active infection that needs systemic antibiotic
  • Allergic history of omeprazole
  • Receiving prohibit co-medications that may have drug interaction or attenuate GERD symptoms such as tetracycline, ferrous salt, digoxin, isoniacid, oral bisphosphonate

Phase 2 randomized parallel study SSc patients who fit all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be eligible to phase 2 study.

Inclusion criteria

  • SSc patients who completed the phase 1 study.
  • The subjects were defined as PPI-resistance.
  • The subject must be willing to continue phase 2 study.

Exclusion criteria
