A member asked:
Since i started to notice that famotidine (20 mg.) helped with my throat and feel less acid reflux but it gives me gas and feel bloated sometimes?

Reflux.: There are other stronger medications you can try over the counter that may not give you the same side effect. Prilosec. Prevacid (lansoprazole). Look up anti-reflux diet recommendations as well.
