What can we take for indigestion???

I can't stand tums, I actually can't stomach them. I vomit every time one comes in contact to my mouth.


Please, please, please let me know if your doctor says you can take anything else.

Have you ever tried the smoothies tums? the mint ones and the flavored ones make me gag. But the berry smoothies aren't bad. They are still chewable pills but les chalky.

I have tried every Tum imaginable. I tried crushing them and eating the powder, chewing them, sucking on them. I just can't handle them.

I'll try the Pepcid. Thanks!

With DS, I had horrible heartburn the first half of my pregnancy. I lived on Zantac 75.

I am dying of heartburn at 8 weeks, it is all day and I just cannot handle it.

Tums do not work for me. I switched to Mylanta - it is chalky and minty but it is ok. Not sure if it is working that much better yet.

Re: What can we take for indigestion???

My doctor told me Zantac was safe to take. It's pretty good. I also gag every time I try Tums - but like others say, the Berry ones have been better.
