Avatar f tn This is my third pregnancy and I always get brutal heart burn and acid reflux and have tried everything and nothing has worked well other than this. This works much better than baking soda in water and the taste is much easier to get used to! I have read that it has to be this brand because it is natural and organic and such, you need to get it from a health food or natural food store. Other kinds might work just as well but I didn't want to risk getting something that didn't work.
Avatar f tn 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.
4111382 tn?1356207828 My SIL also said Maalox, the liquid kind, works really, really well, maybe try that instead of tums? It's OTC and safe to take while pregnant, I think it lasts longer, too. Did tums work for you? They didn't work for me at all.
Avatar f tn I also take pepcid for heartburn, way better than eating chalk and it works like a dream! Call your doctor and double check to make sure it's fine for you to start taking it!
Avatar f tn I found peppermint gum/mints helped sooo much better and had a longer lasting effect. Actually nothing helped me but that and small snacks.

1088529 tn?1256844030 Avoid heavy meals and take frequent small ones. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Go to bed at least 2 hours after food. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar f tn Try getting some tums, I use the berry flavored ones. When you think you have it, take two tums and see if it helps.
Avatar f tn I began taking Gabapentin for the electricity and muscle spasms in my legs. My initial dose was 100 mg at bedtime. Now, I am up to 100 mg 3 times daily. It has helped greatly, but recently I have been having some break-through spasms. I do not recall having had any "vibrations" from the medication itself.
Avatar f tn I have gas so bad and mostly I just burp but it seems to get worse at night and hurts so bad. I heard I can take tums? How much can I take and is there anything else I can take?
Avatar f tn Tums is my best friend .. I'm 24 weeks 5 days and I've had acid reflux disease before I got pregnant and now it's worse!
