Heartburn- How much Rennie is too much?

[WestChick]

yep u should def try fruit tingles , they work a treat for me. and theyre so yummy, much nicer tasting then all the other stuff, plus im sure u can have as many as u want as theyre lollies hehe

when I was pregnant I went through huge packets a day. went to the doc and told her about it and she gave me a perscription. worked like a charm, took one each morning and didn't have any heartburn for the rest of the pregnancy. was more like acid reflux that I had, and I think thats what the perscription was for, it was called renetidine or something along those lines. no impact on bub at all

Ranitidine is the active ingredient in Zantac and Mylanta. I think it is in Gaviscon too. It also gets prescribed for bubs with reflux. You can get it over the counter or even at the supemarket. Have a close look at the labels when you do your grocery shopping and get one that has ranitidine

Hi KGB, welcome to belly belly & congrats on your pregnancy

I dont know what brand fruit tingles are but if you go to the lolly isle in the supermarket you'll find them there maybe near the lifesavers, mentos etc.

I asked my doctor about the rennie & she said that the maximum dosage written on the packet, being 18, is safe. So i'm still taking Rennie & prob have very close to 18 every day.

I hope your heartburn eases for you soon.
