What I've read is Tums or Rolaids - but definitely double check with your MD!!!

Re: What to take for heart burn...
Tums is great, and gives you added calcium. Just don't take TOO much...you can get rebound acidity. I always found taking Simethicone with it helps as well. And simethicone is not absorbed into the blood, so totally safe.

Re: What to take for heart burn...
I have been told Zantac. After my procedure the meds did a # on my stomach and they now have me taking Zantac before bed and Prilosec before I get out of bed in the morning... It got so bad that I would randomly throw up from the heartburn and sour stomach and they've both helped tremendously. Before that I was using tums- and I agree w PP- the smoothies are good!

Re: What to take for heart burn...
Then nurse told me I could take TUMS and that it was actually good to take bc of the calcium in it.
