Go pick up zantac 150 or 75 mg. If 75 mg take 1 pill twice daily and then take tums as needed. Zantac should prevent the heartburn but if it doesnt work on occasion take tums (i normally take 4 extra strength tums or 2 ultra strength at a time)
I was prescribed zantac 75 mg twice a day with my first baby and told to take tums if for some reason zantac doesnt help so its perfectly safe! :)
Try taking zantac and sometimes drinking milk helps.
Did you take some tums? Try eating smaller meals throughout the day and avoid foods that give you the acid reflux for awhile. Hope you feel better!
