Gaviscon or the K-mart or Walmart store brands beat Pepcid or Zantac for me.
“My wife calls it You got drunk, and that is why I ate the whole pecan pie... And the m&m.s and that small thing that used to be our pet... “
MIne is usually due to one of those Progressive Soups. My wife says when I have a few too many I should eat something more Conservative.

That scares me. You came up with a picture of a can of soup at 4:30 in the morning.

Johnson & Johnson had had one problem after another this past year.
Don’t take any life insurance tests while taking alfalfa. We found out it will affect the blood or urine test and you won’t pass. Had a rancher in years ago. Couldn’t pass the test; but we knew he was healthy. Found out it was the hay he was dealing with.
Funny how things will affect you.
Zantac, Prilosec, Previcid. Pepsid is not as good as these.
Obamacare happens
FUBO
Well gee whiz, maybe you're not the only ones stocking up on the stuff over Christmas?
One teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and your problem will be gone in 5 minutes. Tastes nasty for a moment but worth the relief. Try it. My daughter did and she was amazed. Cheaper and better for your stomach than all those pills, etc. Indigestion/heart burn is not caused by too much acid, it is caused by too little.
Thanks for the info.
So true.....
Why are there so many indigestion/heart burn medications on the market?....
Because there are so many indigestion/heart burn medications on the market!
I haven't found Pepcid on the shelves for about 6 weeks now so I've been using the Wallgreen and CVS brands........
As a side note, I get hearburn alot, probably due to my taking the arthritis medication Celebrex. I think I'll try some of the alternative treatments mentioned here..........not too keen about the vinegar tho....LOL!
Apple cider vinegar. Farmers have known about it for centuries. You can make it yourself and it’s cheaper and works better than all those pills and chewy toys down at the pharmacy.
Also, many people would rather believe that they need a doctor, a prescription, a pill to treat their problem than believe that a simple, natural, cheap remedy exists in their kitchen cabinet. This remedy is just as simple as using ginger and water to cure nausea/upset stomach.
My daughter told me that if you’ve ever done shots, it’s no worse. Just rinse it down with a sip of water or juice to get the taste out of your mouth.
Scroll down and read the ingredients in this Amish formula.
Good luck!
it's called Prev-Avid... better living through chemistry
I went to buy some for my father, and the pharmacist told me about the packaging recall. He also said he thought it was being re-formulated. He said it would be back in the new year. I saw some ads for it on several news websites.
