OUCH! Antacid! What to do?

[Lois 6]

Hi everyone...my daughter had her plication surgery Dec.31/12...when she came home, she had antacid medication prescribed, for the first 2 months. She has finished that, but continues to suffer quite a bit from upset stomach and acid reflex. Does anyone have any suggestions as what to take, to help relieve this? So far she has taken Tums and Papaya Enzymes...some relief, but is frustrating to her. Open to any suggestions and your experience with this...

Thanks

Lois I ran out of the meds a month after and switched to Pepcid ac and tums. It didn't work the same at all. So I took my original package to my dr ( it's Spanish lol) anyway he was able to prescribe me the same meds. Way better... I recently weened off them about a week ago but I'm ok now and glad I got those same ones again to take!
