A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heartburn: Heartburn or reflux should respond to omeprazole or famotidine. Carafate helps. Avoid alcohol,caffeine,nicotine, aspirin,or anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen or naproxen. Sleep with your chest higher than your abdomen. If you're not completely sure that your symptom is heartburn and are experiencing recurrent chest distress, see a physician or gastroenterologist for evaluation &treatmen
