I have never had heartburn in my life so I have never taken TUMS or anything like that. With this pregnancy, I have been getting heartburn almost everyday and it's getting to the point that I need to take something. I know that TUMS are safe to take during pregnancy. Does anyone take anything other than TUMS or feel that another medication works a little better?

Re: What do you take for heartburn?
Zantac is stronger and will work well if you need it.
I'm on Rx meds due to a pre-existing condition.

This. I just talked to the nurse today regarding it and she recommended Zantac. I'll be picking some up after work tonight.
Same here. What prescription are you on?
Dr. prescribed Previcid..it got sooo much better, so now I take Mylanta in between meals and Tums when needed. Good Luck, i know it's very painful.
Watch your Tums intake, especially if you drink soda. Too many can cause kidney stones and you def don't want kidney stones while you're pregnant.
I take a Zantac if I need it or the occasional Tums.
