Acidity & heartburn after cough medicine

2023-11-14 17:33:57
My 12-year-old younger brother has been experiencing heartburn for 2 days. He has been taking cough medication for more than 2 weeks now. Is taking cough medications might be the cause of heartburn? What could be the possible solutions and remedies for that? ( he is not having a cough anymore so he is  stopping cough medication from tonight)
