It depends on how bad it is. Prilosec may or may not work for you. I have acid reflux and it laughs at Prilosec. I would start out trying it once every other day and if that doesn`t work once a day. If that doesn`t cut it go to the Dr.

Peppermint tea works pretty well too. I'm gonna have to try the celery trick...

A teaspoon of baking soda mixed with a cup of water can help.

Saltine crackers, stalk of fresh celery, and a bottle of water.

Also, once I was in a bar, and had a terrible case of heartburn. I asked the bartender if they sold Tums, she said no, but then poured me a drink, I seem to recall it being about 3/4 club soda, 1/4 Worcestershire sauce. It tasted terrible, but it worked. That was Bitters not worcestershire. It is also good for headaches and hang-overs. If you sleep on your left side, acid reflux will be reduced

What do you recommend?
How do you avoid it? Tums for quick/temporary relief. The purple pill for non-prescription relief. I take omeprazole by prescription and it works pretty well for Gird. On occasion I still have to get up in the middle of the night and chew about 3 Tums....

I have been doing the Prylosec, Omeprazole and Tums thing for a couple of years now. About a week ago, I read online somewhere about the benefits of eating an apple to prevent heartburn. Nothing to lose, so I figured "what the hell". I have been eating a quarter of an apple once or twice a day since and have had no incidence of heartburn. I don't like to take drugs of any kind if I can avoid it.
I happened to have an appointment with my Dr. on an unrelated issue, so I asked him about it. He said "if it works, do it". He mentioned that several of his patients drink apple cider with good results.
I will give celery a shot. Thanks for the tip.

Is it heartburn or is it a heart attack?
Knowing the difference is priceless.
Some of these remedies I have seen can make you DRT if you are having a heart attack.
