Main stay of treatment of esophageal stricture is dilatation.
Supportive medical therapy for esophageal stricture secondary to Gastroesophageal reflux disease includes proton pump inhibitors.
Proton pump inhibitors also help in prevention of recurrence after surgical esophageal dilatation.
20 mg twice daily is the standard therapy for most of the patients following esophageal  dilatation. Patients who do not respond to the standard dose me require increased dose of 40 mg twice daily.
Proton pump inhibitors have been found more effective in acid suppression in these patients as compared to H2 blockers.

==Medical Therapy==
The most common cause of esophageal stricture is gastroesophageal reflux disease. Treatment for esophageal stricture is a combination of dilation and proton pump inhibitors or acid-blocking medicines. Studies show proton pump inhibitors are more effective than acid blocking agents.<ref name="pmid7926495">{{cite journal |vauthors=Smith PM, Kerr GD, Cockel R, Ross BA, Bate CM, Brown P, Dronfield MW, Green JR, Hislop WS, Theodossi A |title=A comparison of omeprazole and ranitidine in the prevention of recurrence of benign esophageal stricture.

Overview

The mainstay of treatment for esophageal stricture is dilation. Pharmacologic medical therapy for esophageal stricture secondary to gastroesophageal reflux disease includes proton pump inhibitors or H2 antagonists. Patients are advised to consider lifestyle modification for gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Medical Therapy

  • The mainstay of treatment for esophageal stricture is dilation.[1] Self dilation can be considered at home with bougie dilators.[2]

Lifestyle modification

For esophageal stricture due to gastroesophageal reflux disease, patients are advised to avoid:[4][5]
