Baclofen and Belching

I have had a problem with belching and burping.  I had previously found that the only way to eliminate this problem was to lie down in a supine position.  Recently I was prescribed Baclofen and found that this drug helped a great deal.  See the article by Zhang, et. al. in GUT "Control of transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxations and reflux by the GABA (B) agonist baclofen in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease" (2002)


This discussion is related to constant belching...gerd causing aerophagia?.
