Tums worked for me at first, but as my heartburn got worse Tums didnt work anymore! For the past four days, I have been taking Pepcid AC twice a day, and I have had very little to no heartburn! Yayyyy!!

tums works great for me. also, i get very bad heartburn at night, and i've found that sleeping with two/three pillows helps as well as not eating or drinking anything for an hour before i go to bed.
also, i've heard milk can help, but i'm lactose intolerant and soy milk just doesn't do it.

rennies don't work that well for me, but tums DO.
milk works.
cuban bread helps.
and like the other girl said, sleeping propped up helps ALOT.
