Patented Pillow Design Eases Symptoms of GERD, Acid Reflux and Heartburn
MedSlant™ has a uniquely patented design that eases the symptoms
of GERD or gastroesophageal
reflux disease commonly known as acid
reflux. GERD is the spontaneous regurgitation of acid and
food from the stomach into the esophagus. MedSlant elevates
the head, chest and shoulders and simply uses gravity to prevent
stomach acid from coming back into the throat, thus protecting the
esophagus from damage.
Elevating only the head on pillows causes the body to bend and
actually makes reflux worse.
 
- MedSlant is 32" long by 24" wide by 7" high and fully supports
your upper torso.
- Made from 100% hypoallergenic polyurethane foam that is comfortable,
yet supportive enough to maintain the recommended slant that physicians
recommend.
- Use MedSlant with or without your favorite bed pillow.
- Sleep on your side or your back.
- The comfort waves provide more relaxing sleep and greater air
circulation.
- MedSlant comes with a washable cover in a travel bag, so you
can enjoy its benefits and comfort wherever you go.
- It's even the correct size to fit under a crib mattress to help
ease Children's Reflux.
In addition to Acid Reflux and GERD, MedSlant™ can provide benefits
for patients with:
Asthma: Elevating the head helps asthma
patients to breathe more easily. About one half of asthmatic
patients also have GERD and what appears to be asthma in many
patients 50 or older may actually be acid reflux. It is not
clear whether asthma is a cause or effect of GERD.
Barrett's esophagus: Caused
by repeated and long-term exposure to stomach acid
it usually develops from GERD. Treatment starts with
elevating the head so acid can't reflux during sleep
Congestive heart failure: Patients
have difficulty breathing when lying flat. Elevating
the head and upper body eases breathing.
Hiatal Hernias: ; Many GERD patients
have Hiatal Hernias. Reducing the symptoms of acid reflux
helps.
Hoarseness: Hoarseness is another
symptom of GERD that can be helped by elevating the head
and upper body.
Infants and Children: About 65%
of babies regurgitate milk occasionally and many children
suffer from reflux and snoring. MedSlant fits perfectly
under a crib mattress and is suitable on top of the mattress
for children old enough to sleep on a pillow. By elevating
the infant's or child's head and upper body, reflux symptoms
are reduced. See Acid
Reflux in Infants and Children.
Pregnancy: At least 25% of pregnant
women suffer from reflux daily. Also, many doctors advise
pregnant women to sleep on a wedge for added comfort. See
Acid Reflux and GERD
in Pregnancy.
Respiratory disease: Can cause
night choking, sore throat and hoarseness. Elevating
the head, chest and shoulders can relieve these symptoms.
Sinus congestion and post nasal drainage: Coughing
and drainage of mucus down the back of the throat can
cause a sore throat and irritate the membranes lining
the larynx. Sleeping elevated on MedSlant can help to
reduce these symptoms.
Snoring: Elevating the head, chest
and shoulders often reduces snoring.
Sleep Apnea: Reflux can cause
spasms of the vocal cords thereby blocking the flow of
air to the lungs and may cause sleep apnea (repeated
but temporary stopped breathing during sleep). Elevation
of the head, chest and shoulders helps control reflux.

"Thanks
for coming up with a pillow that really works. I
used to use three pillows and would wake up with a
stiff neck or a backache but since receiving the MedSlant
those days are over. I let others know who have
the same type of problem (GERD) and they plan on ordering
the pillow soon. Thanks again for a great product. "
