I've given up omeprazole, famotidine, Tums, Rolaids, Coca-Cola syrup and all of the other stuff, including Emetrol when necessary, that I was taking to tame stomach stuff by going all the way back to my grandmother's "cure" of a teaspoon of baking soda in 8 ounces of water at night.

It seems to work fine. I don't have high blood pressure so that might be a concern for those who do. But it's a relief to stop taking all of that as those meds invariably triggered constipation and/or gas. Which then required other over-the-counter stuff. It was like being on a GI tract merry-go-round!

For what it's worth, things got better within the first 48 hours so it might be worth a try.

I’ll try this. Thank you. Nothing has changed so I will try this.
