Try Gaviscon I have had all of these pills they give you but I still find Gaviscon helps more xx

Me also!

I agree with shadow4me, try Gaviscon. Even works when you are lying down. But maybe also let your doctor know that you are having an issue with indigestion. It sounds to me like you need to get checked out, make sure there are no new issues, maybe increase your dosage?

I have recently had bouts of indigestion. Mixed almost a teaspoon of baking soda with a few ounces of water and received almost immediate help (burps bringing up the gas). Most if not all otc remedies have baking soda in them. Hope it helps you.
