A member asked:
Are heartburn syrups harmful if you take them too much, and what should i do if i get frequent digestion problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heartburn: If you are having this frequently you should be evaluated by a GI doctor to be sure that you do not have gastroesophageal acid reflux with or without a hiatus hernia, and if excess acid whether you may be infected with helicobacter pylori. The latter should and can be successfully eliminated. If not, there are easier meds to take for chronic "heartburn". Good luck.
