Common Questions and Answers about Heartburn medicine work
heartburn
My doctor put me on medicine but it still isn't helping. I started with tums and went to zantac. When that stopped working I was on Zantac and tums together. Now that that has stopped working my doctor put me on a medicine from the pharmacy. He said if that doesn't work he will have to put me on a different medicine but it will make me sleepy every time I take it.
Since the attack I quit smoking and have been taking these drugs, but have been unwell almost everyday, suffering heartburn or chest contractions or some other stomach or chest pains or depression. As the months pass by I began to suspect and now believe that these problems are side effects of the drugs. I visited many doctors and had various checks and echos and analysis and was told that I am ok and was advised not to take alternative medicines!
For the past few days non stop!! What can I do to help it?? Nothing seems to work it's become unbearable!!!
I don't know if you have anything similar in the US but I use a medicine called Gaviscon here, it's a dual medicine that work on your acid reflux and indigestion.
Zantac is a over the counter pregnancy safe medicine that I take for extreme heartburn and it works amazing. It's a tiny little pill that you swallow.
Try eating smaller portions of food, I started getting heartburn with this pregnancy and that's what I've been doing, just eat smaller portions and drink milk!
(I know a lot of patients in here have been dxed with gerd, but unless you actually have heartburn, you might want to be reevaluated especially if the meds don't work.
I was taking Tums at.first, then moved to Zantac over the counter. Eventually that medicine didn't work anymore so my OB just prescribed me Protonix and I FINALLY have relief.
If that doesn't help maybe ask your doctor if there is an over the counter medicine that they would recommend. Unless of course you are doing absolutely no medicines. If you get heart burn frequently eat a banana first before you eat anything else. It's what I do.
So I'm 33 weeks pregnant. Zantac and tums didn't help. They prescribed me a medicine and now that's not working. I'm to the point where I'm puking. Can anyone tell me anyone old time tricks or home remedies that would work. Besides milk. Tried that and just puked.....this is aweful!
I have heartburn everyday like crazy. Tums don't even work or milk either. It gets so bad I sometimes vomit.
I have taken omniprozole for extended period of time ..........I have tried taking it as needed, however, that doesn't work. I have tried zantac, and others with short time relief. I have difficulty swallowing, pain in throat, cough, headache, full feeling around jaw and ears. I am 67 years old.
I have the nost horrible heartburn ever,it was that bad that i had to throw up sorry if its tmi...any suggestions? What can i take to feel better? I can't sleep very well too, my baby girl is moving a lot, specially at night.
which over-the-counter antacid/heartburn medicine worked best for you?? I get it pretty often, and im making chili for dinner so i know im really gunna need something to help with it tonight. :) I'm 28 weeks and never had any issues with acid reflex or heartburn till a few weeks ago and now some night its gets so bad that it keeps me up at night. I REALLY dont want to take any medicine during my pregnancy, but this is something i just cant solve myself. tried everything already.
If you're talking medicine then get zantac if you can't get medicine right now then milk always helps me!
