A member asked:
Can you take paracetamols for pain in chest from acid reflux?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It is unlikely: to help. What will help more is an H2 blocker like pepcid or zantac (ranitidine). Also, be sure to avoid spicy foods, caffeine, smoking, and alcohol. Finally, you are 64. Has your chest pain been worked up? It could be cardiac rather than GERD. If it hasn't, see your doctor. If this is a new chest pain, go to the ER. Hope this helps!
