Mylanta and alka seltzer?
Question:
Is the combination safe?
Answers:
Your pain sounds like a combination of gas and acid reflux, probably a burning feeling. The things you were taking are a step in the right direction, but I would leave off the Alka Seltzer in that situation. The Alka Seltzer can irritate your body in certain times, but other times it can be a quick fix for indigestion. I would go with an acid reducer, like Pepcid AC and a gas reliever with the active ingredient, simethicone.
ok quick question are you still alive?if so then its ok,if not then i guess its still ok you just suck.
If you seemed to have a lot of gas that you couldn't get up then the Alka seltzer should work. If you had acid reflux and heartburn (acid reflux) then the Mylanta should work but, why take them both unless your just covering your bases.
It sounds like you had some gas that you couldn't expel. Sometimes just sitting quiet and waiting around will help.
