Acid reflux: Take an antiacid first and formost . This consists of Maalox mylanta or rolaids . Get the pain to stop. Them start taking Prilosec or another proton pump inhibitor. 20 mg twice a day which is before breakfast and dinner. If ther is no change in a few days then add Zantac (ranitidine) at night. Eat a low acid diet. Look up on line what a low acid diet is . Good luck and feel better!
