If it’s due to GERD, antacids should help you along with lifestyle modifications like avoid spicy food especially at night , having tea coffee empty stomach , aerated drinks , pickles etc should be avoided . Symptoms won’t subside immediately, acid reflex will take usually more than a month to show symptomatic relief .
