An ever‐increasing number of adult and pediatric disorders have been shown to be influenced or caused by airway reflux. This has become a controversial and complicated aspect of medicine that requires a multidisciplinary approach. Evidence indicates that it is not only the acidic components of gastric refluxate that injure extraesophageal tissues but also the nonacidic components, such as pepsin and bile. There is a realization that proton pump inhibitors will not be effective when nonacidic…

Today, it is recognised reflux reaches beyond the esophagus, where pepsin, not acid, causes damage, and these new insights may lead to the development of novel drugs that dramatically reduce pepinginogen secretion, block the effects of adherent pepin, and give corresponding clinical benefit.
