What kind of over the counter medicine do you take for heartburn?

When I was pregnant with my kids I used to get acid reflux in the last trimester. I always kept a bottle of Tums by my bed. I think I was eating them like candy at that point.

My boyfriend just chew fresh celery when he is having heartburn. Just natural remedy. hope it helps . happy mylotting. smile always

Yes I think mylanta or milk of magnesia but I can't remember if that is for heartburn or diarrhea, the there is zantac too I think

I normally take Mylanta. I just ran out the other night though, so I have to suffer until I remember to buy more of it. I don't ever have a problem during the day anymore. Mine hits right when I lay down at night.

I dont like to use medications very often. Sometimes though i get heartburn bad enough. Last time i used a chewable pepcid ac. I find the chewable kind work faster. Tums never worked for me. First though i try milk. Milk usually helps my heartburn. If it doesn't then i turn to other options.

I used to get gasy alot when I was stressed out! I don't get it like I used to,thank goodness! Now a days I get more heartburn then gas! I have tried just about every over the counter medicine there is! I went through alot of tums in the past! So much I got sick of them! Now I use Roliads and they do the trick!

I take Prilosec OTC. I have to take it every day but it prevents me from getting heartburn. And I use to have really bad heartburn.

I believe it.

I do not get i very often, but if i do i just take some apple cider vinegar, It tastes terrible, but it works and is a whole lot cheaper than anything else. And it is a healthier way to get rid of the problem.
