Im taking effexor (venlafaxine) xr & zanax can i take something for heartburn?

Stomach upset : Make sure to take medications with food on stomach. That should limit the heartburn. An antacid like zantac (ranitidine) over the counter also may help. Getting to the root of the anxiety is your best bet however. Yoga and relaxation exercises may be significantly beneficial in your case.

Over the counter: There are many over the counter options for heartburn. These are considered relatively safe with your combo of medications. Discuss risks and benefits with your physician otherwise.
