can you take zantac with tums

Tums, zantac or papaya pills are safe... tums arent strong enough for me and papaya pills worked in the beginning but the heartburn got too strong...

Yeah zantac is amaizing I take it once a day

Has anyone ever taken Zantac? My doctor told me to take that everyday instead of taking tums b/c they are pointless, but I kinda don't wanna take medicine.

My doc told me to take Zantac once before bed and once when I wake up and to take tums with calcium in between. I also find that drinking a lil bit of sprite helps because it makes me burp and it relieves a lot of the burning and uncomfortable pain.

I take Ranitidine 150mg at least once a day. I had my OB prescribe it to me but you can get it over the counter.

ve struggled with heartburn my whole pregnancy I usually take 2 Zantac a day as well as tums when is really bothering me.

If you feel zantac is not enough for the acid problem, you can take tums or liquid anti-acid, but you need to space it apart- like wait at least a couple hours after taking your zantac to do it. Also, you should let your doctor know if the zantac is not sufficiently treating your symptoms. You might consider peptobismol if nausea ensues, again spacing it out from when you took the zantac, because tums may not be so great for nausea as it is heartburn.

I live on Tums lol but I dint take more than 4 a day and I take two at a time. No they don't work that great but I do try and drink milk regularly and it only helps for a couple of minutes.

I take tums and just started some zantac. The zantac is a LIFESAVER!

s fine. You can also take Zantac while pregnant. Those were my best friend, especially later in pregnancy.

I take tums. I've also heard of a papaya extract that is suppose to help a lot. I think it's extract. It's sold at Trader Joes and other health stores.

I've had acid reflux since my last pregnancy. Your doctor can give you omeprazole in pregnancy which help. If you dont want to take pill, don't eat anything spicy, no fizzy pops etc. Kept proped up in bed. Milk helps.

Milk curdle in you and can make it worse and even make you vomit. Dr said Zantac or pepcid is safe and take tums in between. If you take zantac once in morning and once at night it works wonders!! I swear by it. I had heartburn 5 out of 7 days in first and second trimesters. Now I have it every once in a while. Also don't lie down right after eating and eat smaller meals. Good kuck!

Yes my Dr said you can take Zantac just make sure you don't take over 300mg a day. I have to use it or I cannot eat anything.

Have you ever been diagnosed with GERD? Have you ever just tried taking a few Tums? That may work also. Tums can be very effective, and they are completely safe. Make sure you are taking the Prozac as prescribed. I'm not sure why you've been "on and off" the Prozac, but that kind of pattern can lead to difficulties in tolerating the med...it can increase side effects, and decrease the efficacy. So, my advice is to just stick with it...take it regularly, as prescribed.

Tums was amazing in the beginning, but I eventually needed Zantac. Now I can't live without Zantac!
