Get some lanzropole tablets from the doc, they work. Drink plenty of water. You could try some of the stuff on the web link below

My doctor told me to mix a does of Mylanta with water and drink it down. It coats as is goes down. You can also try over-the-counter Pepic or Zantac. Zantac works the best and the longest. 1 pill a day for me and I'm fine. If you need something stronger, ask your doctor for Protonix. Protonix is a miracle drung for heartburn - you can eat hot wings and they won't bother you, except your mouth and lips!!! Either way, good luck to you.

Cold milk and yogurt mixed together. It works very well.

Gaviscon is only good on prescription, the gaviscon that you buy over the counter is very weak.

cold milk sipped slowly and trebor xxx mints stay away from juice as it makes it worse

full fat milk always done the trick with me

Pepcid2 - they are great.
Also Tesco do a very good indigestion and heartburn liquid - every bit as good as Gaviscon and half the price.
I have a hiatus hernia and take Losec/Omeprazole so do know what I am talking about

pinch of bicarbonate of soda in a little drop of milk

Try the old milk and raw egg mix

Change your diet, I had a similar problem for many years, until nothing was working. I ate anything and everything, always having heartburn which if you don;t know is indigestion reflux. slowly but surely I was able to find out what foods gave me this, and I stopped eating and drinking these.
One of the big offenders was aspartame, an artificial sweetener found in many drinks, together with most breads, I am only able to eat Sainsburys own make multiseeded loaf now, it really takes time. Other foods are virtually any cheap biscuits or crisps. A quick remedy is a bowl of porridge, which seems to settle my indigestion.
Good Luck in your quest.

As with Steve G, aspartame gives me heartburn.
Margarine also gives me heartburn.
It's better to find the cause of heartburn, rather than treat it.

Bicarbonate of soda half a teaspoon with hot water. It makes you burp. It is really good.

Watching what you eat is the first thing you can do and pay attention to what makes you sick and trying to avoid it. Next get on some Digestive enzymes and take them religiously, along with Probiotics, which is acidopholis , and found mostly in live culture yogurt , believe me this will get you on the right track. Good luck
