This is commonly due to Gastroesophageal Reflux. Rarely it could also be due to esophageal motility disorders. The medication you are currently using should give you relief.
Next Steps
If you don't find relief consult a gastroenterologist.
You may require further evaluation in the form of endoscopy and esophageal manometry
Health Tips
Avoid oily and spicy food. Get regular physical activity and adequate sleep
