Bad Heartburn-home remedies?

[Lief]

Thats strange @ the pharmacist/doctor refusing to give Zantac. I've suffered with bad acid reflux for a few years (my throat, back of my nose is scarred and I lose my voice a lot) I was originally taking nexasole (think that was the name lol) when I became pregnant the reflux got 100 times worse so the doctor prescribed Zantac, twice a day. I find it helps a lot but I still get reflux every now and again throughout the day. I was told to use gaviscon along with the zantac and to stay away from milk as its only a short term fix. (milk makes me sick, so I wasn't drinking it anyway)

I've not read all the replies so I'm sorry if this is a repeat. My family swears by eating raw almonds for heartburn. I hope you find some relief.

My co-worker swears by Papaya tablets! She buys them at the health food store and says they are the best thing ever. Might be worth a shot...

Up until now Tums have been working great for me, and its what my Doc recommended at the beginning. however now I think they are causing more constipation then help with the heart burn...
