Thats another option. Drinking plenty of water can reduce someones heartburn but in your mothers case. Its acidic enough that even water cant neutralize it. Im fobd of drinking water. Maybe thats why every illness i have can be reduced by water alone.
I'm glad that there a drug that helps in getting the heartburn to cool off and stop disturbing her. When she started developing symptoms of that heartburn, she was always restless until she was finally diagnosed with a heartburn before she went for proper treatment and now she is perfectly healthy.
